Raped woman: I read in a cast list from the pressbook that she is a woman who shows the partisans the way to the front. Her part was cut. I some cast lists she is called "peasant woman (raped)". It was never mentioned in her lines from the script that she was raped. She was simply a peasant woman who pointed out in what direction the partisans should go.

Streetwalker: On her way to the Christmas party, Lara meets a prostitute. She was cut from the film. That could be the streetwalker

Thanks, that would explain why neither of these roles can be found.

Regarding Enrique García Santiago and Luis Rodríguez, both of whom are listed on IMDb as playing "Man in train", we have previously tried to work out the identities of these actors in our topic for Per qualche dollaro in più where both are credited, with some further discussion in the topic for Treasure Island. While Bill Carson has one identified as being Rodriguez, it does not seem like any clear identification was reached for either of these actors. While there are plenty of actors still to be identified playing "Man in train", it seems likely that different people have identified (or mis-identified) the same actor under both names, as the other does not seem to appear.

This actor is identified by some sources as being Garcia Santiago and by others as Rodriguez

This is the actor Bill posted as being Rodriguez
I think the actor below is clearly the actor on the left above, but the question remains of which of the 2 names is the correct one.

This is American actor Robert Royal, who was active in films shot in Spain in the mid-1960's, listed by IMDb as playing "Dancer". While there are no male roles that can really be described as dancer, there are men seen dancing in both the restaurant and at the Christmas party, so presumably he should be one of those. I checked these scenes again, but did not find any dancing men who seemed like Royal among those who are seen identifiably.

The 3 actors below are all listed on IMDb as playing extras, which may mean that they do not appear identifiably. I checked the images as best I could, but trying to identify actors you are not familiar with among thousands of extras is a difficult task and so far I have had no success. Pitt at least went on to some fame as a star of Hammer horror films, so if she appears someone may identify her.

This is David Areu, listed on IMDb as playing "Official", identified in 4 70's roles. What is meant by this vague role description I have no idea, as there would seem to be quite a few roles that this could describe. So far I have had no luck spotting any possible candidates.

With Carlos having confirmed Garcia Santiago's identity with pics from his credited role in Los camioneros here, I have added him
