In the next couple of scenes there is hardly any there. Also, when the prison warden get sprayed with the fire extinquisher he is cleaned up in the following shots. 15784 The train consists of four locomotives, but some close ups show wheels of freight cars. 96199 The entire plot wouldn't exist without this one, but just before the engineer stumbles out the door and falls off, he pulls the big red lever on the left side of the cab. In the real world this puts the air brake system into its emergency mode. Among other things, this mode trips a solenoid which causes the engine to return to idle, and the electrical system to not put out power. Neither the Diesel engine nor the electrical system will respond to control inputs until/unless the air system is reset. 6630 When the guard lets Buck in the gate to get on the elevator, he is holding the keys in his right hand. As Buck is giving the guard the shoes, the keys are in his left hand. 39165 Almost at the end of the movie, Warden Ranken is trying to board the plane hanging from a ladder of a helicopter, and Manny is yelling to him through the right windshield of the second locomotive, the old F7 streamliner. If you look closely when the camera shoots from the inside of the loco and forward through the windshield, you will see that the first engine is gone.
