I admit, I did not care too much for it the first time I saw it but, every time I see it, I like It more and more. My favorite scene in the movie is when the train is coming under strafing attack from an allied fighter (forgive me Martin for not knowing the exact type of fighter ;-)) I also like the scene in the tunnel after they stop-and that Frenchman pushes the handle-letting the trains whistle - make its noise althe while showing his extreme anger at almost being killed; by gritting his teeth.

Anyway, this film is now one of my all-time most favorites.
