Continuity: The Duke knocks the bad guy about in his ranch house. He ends up on the floor with his legs ablaze from a fallen kerosene lamp. When they walk outside after his confession the bad guy's trousers are unmarked.

Factual error: When the rebs seize the train, they release the flatcar and caboose. However, since they are on a grade, the knuckles wouldn't separate without slacking up on the strain, either by backing the loco, or pushing the flatcar uphill.
