Writer Arnold Ridley came up with the idea for this story whilst standing on the platform of Mangotsfield Station near Bristol. The station is surrounded on three sides by tracks, and there was an earth bank opposite him which reflected the sounds of trains coming along the track on the other side of the station, making it sound like a train was coming that would never arrive.
Hodgkin refers to the bridge crash taking place on the evening of the Diamond Jubilee 44 years earlier: this refers to Queen Victoria's celebration of 60 years of monarchy on 6/22/1897, thereby dating the film's events on the night of 6/22/1941.
Director Richard Lester used the opening comedic train sequence as the inspiration for the similar sequence in "A Hard Day's Night (1964)."
Jackie Winthrop comments that R. G. Winthrop reminds her of "something out of 'East Lynne'." "'East Lynne", a novel written by Ellen Wood and published in 1861, was a best-seller that was made into a successful play, staged many times. There have been 15 film versions and one television series.
Tommy Gander makes a comment about the parrot singeing its "parson's nose".

It has a swollen appearance because it also contains the uropygial gland that produces preen oil.

"Station Master: If this be a natural thing where do it come from, where do it go?"
