Behind the scenes

 * The Seven Dwarfs are friends of Snow White in the 1812 German fairy tale by the Brothers Grimm, but more popularly known by their appearances in Walt Disney's 1937 film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.
 * The train passing through, has the initials "H.B." on every cart.

Errors

 * When Dick is first looking through his binoculars, Muttley is sitting next to him, but when the camera switches to a close up of Dick, Muttley is between his arms.
