White Christmas
White Christmas mistake picture

Continuity mistake: The view out the back of the barn door when it's first revealed does not match the same view, just minutes later, in the final shot of the film. (01:55:43 - 01:59:12)

Continuity mistake: When Wallace and Davis are on the train heading for the club car, they bump the door to the stateroom where the Haynes' sisters are. In the morning when they are getting ready to disembark, the sisters are in sleeping berths, not the stateroom.

Suggested correction: They all change to berths because they have to split the cost of a room for two to sleeping for 4. Intentional not an error.

Not possible since the conductor said to Wallace and Davis there was no room on the train. He said if they buy tickets, they can sit up in the Club Car all night.

Possibly a change of trains in D, C, OR MY.

Yes. They HAD to change trains. No direct service from Florida to Vermont back then. Or today either, matter of fact.

It takes more than one night to get to Vermont. The train would stop in New York before Vermont so there would conceivably be more room when people left the train.

I don' think so. Because when the guys get on the train and don't have the ticket's the conductor tells them all that the train is full and all that is left is the club car. There must be a cut scene or something because this one sticks out like a sore thumb.

Wrong! It takes TWO trains to get from Florida to NY. Still does even today on Amtrak.

Tickets were to New York, not Vermont. Obviously new accommodations.

The conductor said there was no space available. The train was all booked up so there were no berths available even if they wanted to that. It's just another continuity error, period.

They changed trains in New York. Other commenters have clarified this already.
