<p dir="auto">Although I don't think the film actually dates any of the events in the third act, it does feel like it compresses time.<br />
The US events were turn of the century, and Bolivia was some eight years later, although the film doesn't seem to give much indication of that.<br />
But in either case, electricity was hardly unknown by then. I think the subtle nods too it were entirely deliberate.</p>

<p dir="auto">Western Electric Company patented an automatic, electric fire alarm system in 1871for use in large buildings like hotels called an electro-mercurial annunciator. I'm pretty sure banks would have some sort of electrical alarm system in the late 1800s.</p>

<p dir="auto">Must a been.just went back, and the scene where "Sweet Face" is supposed to throw the posse off &amp; Butch and Sundance are in the prostitutes room, an ELECTRIC LAMP is clearly plugged into the wall</p>

<p dir="auto">This was the 1890's or so and electricity was getting pretty widespread so that may have been real.</p>

<p dir="auto">When the gang first gets off the train in Bolivia, as Sundance is walking up to the entrance-way, in the background, you'll see a MOTORCYCLE fly by!</p>
