Has one of the more famous movie flubs in it.
Just before EMS shoots Cary Grant at the Rushmore commissary, a little boy in the near foreground covers his ears well before the shot goes off.
In dailies, someone pointed it out to Alfred and he said to just leave it in & see who notices.

Its shameful that such inter-city train travel in the U.S. doesnt exist anymore like it does now in Europe and Asia, except on some slow, rickety, limited and expensive Amtrak routes catering to the aged, tourist class of passengers.
