Though the film is set in the 1930's, modern railroad freight cars not introduced until the 1970's are seen behind Jackie early into the film.

What are the differences between the British BBFC 15 DVD and the Uncut Version?

Battle Creek Brawl was Jackie Chan's first attempt to become known and famous to the international audience after his first Kung-Fu comedies like Snake in the Eagle's Shadow and Drunken Master. Despite Robert Clouse as director and a score by Lalo Schifrin (both involved in Bruce Lee's blockbuster Enter the Dragon) the project was not successfull and it took over 10 years to establish Jackie Chan in the USA.Unfortunately the movie is softly cut in Great Britain because of the BBFC 15 rating and harsh rating codes. A slap on both ears had to be cut. A detailed comparison between both versions with pictures can be found here.
