Goofs At approx. 19:38, the telegraph line was referred to as a telephone line. This was supposed to have taken place shortly after the end of the civil war, which was 1865. The telephone was not invented until 1875 and the first telephone was not installed until 1878. The golden spike connecting east to west was driven in May of 1869 in Promontory, Utah. See more »
Quotes Weeks: Well, that's my hotel over there. It's usually full up, but I can take care of you now that Mr. Holly is changing his room.
Ross Grainger: Wrong. Holly isn't changing his room. He checked out.
Weeks: No, he'll be occupying the downstairs rear. You see, I'm also the Oaktown's undertaker. And having my establishment on the premises, well, it saves so many steps.
