Yes, I agree. It's an original, under-rated and somewhat forgotten sequence. I agree with many that this movie is hurt by Jennifer O'Neill and some of the other poor actors utterly miscast, although I felt it picked up well at the end with a very solid gun fight. But...the train sequence still, after 40 years, is the part that stays with me...

Yes, the movie begins terrific, but then it just gets too easy-going. And such a great beginning then only makes the disappointment bigger.
