Facts about

The sequence of the train transporting the big guns was expanded with additional footage shot after principal photography. The extra footage consisted of POV shots from the front of the train and shot at a lower frame rate to make the train appear to be traveling very fast around the curves in the track. This was done to show off the Cinerama process in much the same way as the famous rollercoaster sequence in This Is Cinerama. Much of this footage was removed from the general release version.
The name of the song that the Germans sing is "Panzerlied". However, only the first four lines of the song are actually sung.
