 * The narrator mentioned that Duncan had used all his coal, but Duncan still had a full bunker.
 * When Rusty races to the rescue, his number and nameplate are reversed.
 * When Rusty pulls Duncan clear of the bridge, it suddenly jerks downwards slightly as it begins to fall; this is due to a film cut.
