Did anybody else notice the C44-9W (introduced in 1994!!!) pass in front of the camera left-to-right. You only see the lower half of it but its still obvious what it was... Surely there is a preserved 1950's locomotive somewhere they could have used instead... Strange for a 1950s movie

saw it, noticed same type goof in cinderella man (the loading crane in the dock was definately post 80's not 30's)
This is YOUR LIFE and it is ending one minute at a time!
I saw that too, and thought, hunnh? Is this supposed to be 30s or 40s or what? But Santa Fe Warbonnet hood unit before 1980s? No way!
I wonder if the Santa Fe Warbonnet F-unit running head-on over the camera was an old stock shot, or a shot staged especially for the movie? Isn't there a "
cosmetically restored" Warbonnet F-unit somewhere, maybe California rail museum.
But in Louisiana? Fairly authentic for 1950s train travel, but in Louisiana?
