Unstoppable

Visible crew/equipment: After the train crashes into the horse trailer, there is a scene with Denzel's train talking to dispatch. They are talking about how Denzel's train is too big to fit in one of the sidings. During this scene, the camera is moving around the train looking through the cabin. The head of a crew member is visible reflected in the glass.

Visible crew/equipment: When 7375 and 7376 pull out of the siding in the attempt to slow down 777, Judd Stewart is the only engineer controlling to two engines, he is sat in the front engine (7375). However, when the camera is on the second engine, 7376, a person can be shown sat in the cab of 7376.

Factual error: In the yard scene when Dewey tries to change the switch, the throttle lever slips from idle to full power. This would not have been possible. Throttle levers are notched, and require significant force to move.

Question: Wouldn't it be easier if Stewart just attached his cab to 777 and any other qualified personnel with him just walked from Steward to 777 and took control of it, too easy perhaps? Or the welder could have someone with a BB gun in the back to shoot the famous "kill switch" next to fuel tank, instead of the cops trying to?

Answer: Yeah, but it wouldn't be nearly as dramatic.

Answer: Put a man in the back of the truck with a broomstick and use it to push the fuel cut off switch as the truck drives alongside the train.
