Episode Notes

 * In the English dub version of this episode, the subtitle incorrectly states Riza Hawkeye's Rank as Major, when she is actually a Second Lieutenant.
 * The episode is adapted from content in Chapter 4: Battle on the Train.
 * The only noteworthy changes from the manga chapter this episode was adapted from is that Maes Hughes, along with Vato Falman, are also aboard the train in the anime, while both were absent in the original manga. Also, Bald's capture in the anime was used to make Edward eligible for the State Alchemy exam, while in the manga he was already a State Alchemist.
