Annoying glitch in Warner Brother's 'The Train Robbers'

Not sure if anyone here has watched 'The Train Robbers' yet (which was released last week), but if you did.....you'll notice that 3 or 4 of Ben Johnson's "hell" words get edited out. The volume drops right out as he is about to say "hell" during a few scenes in the film. The odd thing is that the word is used a lot during the film by various characters, but only a couple of Ben Johnson's ones are edited. It's odd, and somewhat annoying. My only guess is that Warner pieced together the film from different sources, and one of the sources must have been a "rated G" or "TV" version back in 1973.

Surprised that this glaring mistake got past quality control at Warner Brothers.

Noticed the volume dropouts as well...Warners should be drawn and quartered for releasing a film that way.
