There is nothing that says a bullet would necessarily deonate the "flammable" (that is what is written on the) containers, perhaps they were rugged enough?
What I tend to think about more is rather how he jumped of the wagon before it going over the cliff, without them seeing it. That is he'd have to jump out onto the rail from the back of the wagon, landing hard and pretty fast on a train rail.. I imagine that would hurt like hell with all those boards and what not every x meter apart -- well we all know what train tracks look like.
I totally agree, great movie man.. I tend to watch if every year or so since I was a wee lad, its stuck on me despite most ppl I know thinking it sucks.. to me it makes me want to head out onto the open highway or imagine how wicked it would be to live in a commune with people you care about :)
