Overview

Drama

A freight train careening off the tracks sends Jimmie Nelson (James Hall), the ne're-do-well of a railroad owner, John Nelson (Robert Homans), out to redeem himself, by working under an assumed name, to investigate why and who is the culprit behind the sabotage against his father's fast-express line.
