The train has no caboose on the end. In 1963 a freight train in the U.S. would still have had a caboose. And the freight cars that we can see as the train rolls off into the distance and Jack drives up aren't "period" either.

Hmmm, interesting observation Jeff. I'm a train buff too, and you're probably right about that, unless it was a short line train or something. I remember on TOB there was a discussion that at least they got the sound of the horn right for the railroad line and trains in Wyoming in 1963.

Hey, Eric,
I missed that mention of the sound of the horn being "right." Thank goodness it wasn't a steam whistle!
Now that you mention it, I suppose you could make a case that there might not have been a caboose if it was a short-line short-haul, but I think it still would have looked more "period" with a caboose.
My interest is mainly steam era, so I could be talking through my Resistol, but the covered hopper on the end of the train--you can see it moving off into the distance as Jack approaches in his truck--looks too "modern" to me.

Agreed. I noticed that too.

Thank you, Courtney, little darlin'! I really got crucified for that aiming comment on another thread!
RouxB:
I was mementarily distracted by the thought of that extended crying scene...
All the kids, except Baby Jenny, were pretty horrid-could have done better with them.
And more lovin'! I would have liked to see more of the meetings in the later years.
And, so shoot me-I don't care-Jack alive. There! I said it! (head wagging) O0
DeeDee:
Just like this pic...Oh how I wish we could have seen this scene.
