Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaArtemus Gordon (Ross Martin) is nursing a broken leg in this program. On June 26, 1968, during filming of "The Night of the Avaricious Actuary," whose broadcast date was pushed out December of that year, Martin broke the fibula of his right leg during filming of an action sequence in which fired a Colt repeater with pump handle and, after tossing it aside, caromed back and he accidentally stepped on the barrel, rolled his foot over it, and instantly broke it. As a result, the script for the next program filmed, "The Night of the Juggernaut," was re-written to have Martin's character suffering a leg injury. The injury was worked into a few subsequent shows while Martin recovered. A lot of Martin's on screen minutes during his recovery are spent sitting down or stationary. Fortunately, Martin was a quick healer. Three weeks after the accident, the cast was removed and by the end of the week, Martin was back driving again. As it happened, the scene in which Martin was injured was finished later after the he was able to move around and walk again.
- GoofsThe stand-in for Ross Martin, necessary because Martin's leg was broken in real life, is noticeably heavier than the actor in his few brief walking scenes at the beginning before the character's leg is broken.

Why such a ridiculous machine?
I don't know why the producers of the series made such a ridiculous machine to terrify the land owners, farmers. It would not scare a three years old kid. They could have chosen some kind of tank, an armored machine, painted in black, as they have already made for previous season, the first one - I don't remember the episode. It spoils the whole story. Besides this, that's a good episode, where some black characters are used in more than just supporting roles. Maybe this was because of the era, late sixties, Martin Luther king, civic rights for Black people. One more particularity of this episode, the ending is in two parts aboard the train.
