Goofs

The Lady Vanishes

Edit

Continuity

Near the end of the movie, when the train is backed up to the yard, and Amanda has switched the points, she runs towards the train as it is leaving. The track they pass over passes the locomotive when the camera shows Robert reaching for her, but when the camera shows her running, she has yet to run over the track until the end, when Robert picks her up.
Although the action is explicitly set in August (1939), the leading lady wears, or otherwise carries, a full-length silver-fox coat, while several other female characters also wear winter coats, with large fur collars, even when the action is taking place on a sunny summer's day in Central Europe.

Factual errors

The name of the German village Müllenbach is misspelled "Mullenbach" both on the train station signs as well as the ambulance.
Charters and Caldicott arrive home to find their much-anticipated test match has been washed out. However, in reality the third test against the West Indies at The Oval did take place 19-22 August 1939 and was drawn. Due to the worsening situation in Europe, the remaining two games in the series were cancelled.
