When Silver Streak was first shown on TV, it had scenes that were not in the home video version, such as:
- There's an extra scene of George and Rita talking. She inquires as to if he was riding hobo on the train.
- A longer scene of Rita and George taking off in the airplane.
- At the beginning when George arrives at the train station, the taxi driver comments that since George is going from Los Angeles to Chicago and a train that he must be a sucker for boredom.
- A scene where the Silver Streak is pulling into the Kansas City station, which takes place right before Grover and George rush in.
