Come up here.

Well, there it is.

Now, who said we couldn't make it with
our skinny herd?

Well, now, that appears unto me that
that there is Kansas City.

Say it's nothing but a town.

Now, go on in. By the time you get
there, I'll let you know whether it's

up in here or not. You want me to stick
with you?

No. Stay with the herd. Keep going
straight.

Meet Jacob Grote, biggest livestock
dealer in Kansas City. Jake, this is my

partner. You're an expensive surprise,
Calhoun.

I just bet $500 you wouldn't make it
here by the end of the month.

You're buying the herd, I take it?
Right.

At $8 a head.

Makes about $6 ,000 apiece. Remember the
deal, Ben?

We split the profits after what that
herd cost me.

That's the deal.

Now, those horses cost me $5 apiece.

Figures out to 10 ,500.

Leaving 1 ,900 to split.

Call your share 1 ,000.

Call my partner a thief.

No, Ben.

Those horses cost you 25 cents apiece
back in the Indian nation.

I got the bill of sale at $5. You've got
one last chance is what you've got.

Take your $1 ,000 then.

It doesn't make any difference to you
one way or the other, I take it.

I'll buy your livestock. I won't wipe
your nose.

Or his.

Take your thousand dollars.

I'd only spend it burying you anyway.

Well, there it is.

I'll take your word on the size of the
herd.

And I'll take your word on the money.

Pay the man with that, huh?

And there's half for my sick partner.

Now, that's enough.

You made your play and Calhoun just
topped it. Now, that's all.

All right, it's finished.

You have any plans for that money?

Luxurious plans.

Why? Well, uh, you're a gambler.

We got a little game tonight.

Friendly game?

No, for blood.

Good. Deal me in.

I believe you've been bluffed, Buckeye.
I don't begrudge you, Calhoun.

But just stop taking it all from me.

Ain't nobody picking on you, Buckeye.

Just playing the card the way I see
them.

And these cards call for a bet.

$2 ,000.

Call.

I'll go along with a wee prayer.

One card.

One.

All three.

My daddy is not that rich.

Five.

And... Ten more.

I'm a dangerous dealer.

You're a real menace.

There's your ten.

And 30 ,000 more.

I've only 4 ,000.

And change.

Table stakes.

Call for the pot.

I'd, uh... I'd prefer to raise.

Now, if, uh... Calhoun here will allow a
small breach in the rules,

this will back my bet.

Into what corner?

Title.

land grants, outstanding common stock,
and complete ownership in my

railroad. Buffalo Pass, scalp lock, and
defiance.

Against my $30 ,000?

Man, this is an entire railroad.

I'm just putting it up for collateral.

I'm not in the loan business, Buckeye.

However...

My case money.

And 43 shares of stock in Vermont
Insurance Company comp.

That's all I got.

Against my railroad.

Take it or leave it.

I had a pair of aces.

And I drew an ace.

And a ten.

And another ten.

Good morning, Josephine.

Seems you've won a railroad, Calhoun.

Yes, sir. I'll be with you in a moment.
Yes, sir. This goes to the construction

superintendent of the Buffalo Pass Scout
Block and Affiance Railroad.

To inform you that I have recently
acquired ownership of the BPSD.

I will expect efficiency, loyalty, and a
complete progress report upon my

arrival, which should be within the
week.

Signed, Benjamin B. Calhoun, president
of the BPSD. You got that? I got it. You

want that sent to your railhead
construction camp, Mr. Calhoun?

Good thinking, boy.

Now tell me, where's the best men's
store in Kansas City?

Two blocks east.

Thank you. And what's your name?

Barnabas Rogers, sir.

All right, Barnabas Rogers, you come
with me. I've got some more messages to

send. And you get the first one off.

But he's on duty! That's right.

Now, the first message goes to the
President of the United States. Dear

President Brent.

Now, it's such a stretch.

Dear Mr. Baldwin.

To inform you that I've been to peak
Calhoun, just acquired ownership of the

Buffalo Pass.

Scalplock and Defiance Railroad?

That's right, friend.

Bag, baggage, and rolling stock.

Bring me a drink.

He won me railroad.

With my money.

Then join me in drowning a few sorrows,
friend.

Oh, I'm not drowned yet, friend.

Can you locate Calhoun, keep me notified
wherever he is?

That'll be a real pleasure.

He's a lively one.

I got gypsy blood, Buckeye.

I can smell an accident coming.

It's out of the question, Mr. Calhoun. A
private car must be built to

specification. It is not rolling stock,
but a triumph of artisanship.

Six months, I would say.

Under the most fortunate of
circumstances.

That one, for example, which we have
named Le Bon Chance.

It took now a year in the building.

Le Bon Chance?

I'm afraid this is a private car.

Don't ever be afraid, ma 'am. If it's
for the car, I'm thinking of buying it.

Even though it belongs to Mr.

Standish? He hasn't taken possession
yet. But he has sent his associate, in a

manner of speaking.

Marta Grenier, in possession.

Benjamin P. Calhoun, in admiration.

And if it's for the car, I will have it.

You're arrogant.

I'm lucky.

And I've got up momentum. Right now I'm
riding a lucky streak and this car is

all a part of it.

Do you believe in taking risks?

Not very often.

But you obviously do.

You want to bet?

I'll bet you $10 ,000 against my getting
it.

And if I get it, you go along with it.
That way you won't have to back.

And you might find the ride interesting.

I just might.

Is it a bet?

Perhaps.

I'll accept that.

Barnabas!

Bring that foundry manager over here.

Ever taken a bribe?

Never.

You can start on a good high plane.

I'm going to offer you $10 ,000 to
change title of this car to my railroad.

$10 ,000? That's impossible.

$10 ,000.

Just to help you make up your mind.

And you disappoint my part, Ben here.

Now, I purely have to gut you and scalp
you and hang you up to dry.

Now, I ain't killed a man for two days
now.

Now, I'm feeling mighty peaked.

Give him some more champagne.

Took all the cash I had, but now it's my
private car.

Do I win the bet?

As you said, it most certainly will be
an interesting ride.

Grant?

Make that bill a sale out in BPSD, then
have this car brought around to the

station in an hour.

How about you, friend? Can you go along?

Well, I've been there for it. I want to
have a little big city noise before I go

back.

I'll stay here with this old boy, keep
an eye on him, make sure that

everything's sent down to you.

Good. Anything I got you need?

Yep.

Got another seagull?

Much obliged.

Come on, we're going to take care of Mr.
Calhoun's business.

Everything's coming, Mr. Calhoun.

Everything's going, Mr. Barnabas. Get
your stuff on board.

Hmm?

Lovely one.

What's this for?

Flowers.

For a funeral.

Lord Barnabas learned to cook, but I
strongly suspect it was a workhouse.

Tomorrow I'll cook.

It's about time I learned.

Experiment on me?

Mm -hmm.

What do I get in return?

Dinner.

After dinner?

Indigestion.

Mr. Calhoun!

Mr. Calhoun, Buffalo Pass is just ahead.

We're going to switch on to the BPS &D.
Wake up, Mr. Calhoun. I just saw the

sign for Buffalo Pass.

Good morning.

Is it not?

Absolutely. In that case, good morning.

What is it? Indians attacking?

Not anything as trivial as that.

We're switching on to my railroad.

Why?

There it is. 16 -foot ladders. I may be
broke now, but when

this railroad's finished, it's all mine.

You'll own an empire.

I'll build an empire.

This railroad's going to open up a lot
of new land.

When we hook on to the Union Pacific,
that connects with the rest of the

Dave Terrence, your construction
engineer.

Well, pleased to meet you, Mr. Terrence.

Dave, come in, come in.

Mr. Grenier, morning. This is Dave.

Pleasure, ma 'am.

Miss.

We've been waiting ever since we got
your telegram, Mr. Calhoun.

Sure has bucked the whole camp up.

Yes. Oh, I see.

Now, I figure we'll...

Be in the clear and rolling right along
with roughly $500 ,000.

$500 ,000?

Dollars?

You mean the BPSD is broke?

It's penniless and in debt. But, Mr.

Calhoun... It's penniless and in debt.

Well, Ben, darling, it's been an
interesting trip, but short.

I think I'll pack.

Forgetting just one thing.

I own this railroad now.

Relax. Darling, there are all your books
on railroad construction.

What a pity, all that studying you did.

Now I'm going to pay off.

Security?

Common stock and a Buffalo Pass scalp
lock and a fine railroad.

How useful.

I had them printed up in Kansas City.

This is a big day.

Now, when I took over the BPS &D, I took
over a lot of troubles, I knew that.

But I also knew that I took over the
best darn railroad crew west of the

Missouri.

Now, before I left, I made a promise to
Buckeye Sullivan.

He wanted each of you to share in this
dream and the pride and the riches that

follow whenever this railroad is
finished.

He made me promise to give each and
every one of you a chance to own stock

the BPS &E.

We want cash.

All right, friend.

And I'd rather see you have the cash.

So, I intend to buy this stock right
back off.

Calhoun, you said you made a promise.

Yeah.

And it's a promise I'll keep if you're
sure that that's the way you want it.

Hook this up.

No, it's not true.

Nobody's going to cheat me. I want my
stock.

It

looks like

you boys have me over a barrel.

All right.

You get your stock at the paymaster's
window.

Well, that's holy.

You're going to have to work for it now.

Because now it's...

The quicker we're all gonna get rich.

You

swindled

them. Seduced them.

Well, it's been my experience, Mr.
Tarrant. It takes two for seduction.

Those men want to build a railroad.

So do I. What with?

More talk?

You're the engineer.

You tell me what we need.

I want to build a railroad that'll live
on forever.

Long after you and I are forgotten.

I'm an engineer, Mr.

Calhoun, not a gandy dancer.

Those poor men out there believed you. I
don't. Good for you.

You're a rich man, are you? I've got a
transit, a level, a couple of pairs of

working clothes. That figures.

Would you like to be rich?

Yes. All right.

Would you build this railroad for 100 %
of it? Of course I would.

But you're not offering me that. You're
right.

I'm only trying to establish the fact
that you do have a price. I have an

ambition to build this railroad.

Talk to that and I'll listen to you.
Then listen.

Help me build this railroad and I'll
give you 1 % of it. You think you can

me that cheap?

50 %?

Two and a half. 20.

I'm not going to haggle with you.

First place, if we don't get it moving,
we're going to lose it anyway.

But if you'll help me build it, I'll see
to it you've got everything you need to

work with. Plus, 3 % of all of the land,
the bonds, the stocks, everything.

I either take it or leave it.

Is it a deal?

It's a deal.

Good.

Now, any other problems?

Yes. A deadline problem.

We've got to be in scout block by May
the 1st.

Or we forfeit the land grants.

That's nine days.

It's only a week's work, but we're short
of everything.

Food, timber, supplies.

All right.

Make out a list. I'll go in the scalp
lock and get it. You get the men

Then Calhoun.

He's in the bank.

Maybe Calhoun can get our money back.

Calhoun, we're going to the railroad.

There is a certain hostility in town
toward the railroad.

So is he.

Of course, sir, they don't realize the
new management intends to pay past

eh?

Needless to say, Mr. Holmes, we had
planned on you handling all of our

I'm honored.

As a matter of fact, I have already done
business with the railroad.

As a matter of fact. As a matter of
fact, BPS &D owes you some money.

I'm afraid that Buckeye Sullivan was a
poor businessman.

I'm not Buckeye Sullivan.

Oh, I can see that.

Yes, indeed.

Neil Thorvald.

I am longer.

I was cutting ties and bracing timbers
for your railroad.

Two months now. Two whole months.

No monies.

You'll get your money, Mr.

Stovall.

Matter of fact, I've got an order here
for more supplies.

Mister, you owe me $816.

And I want it now.

You're in luck.

Ordinarily, I don't carry that much
money with me.

Over the day, I figured I might need
some odds of in.

Find $820 there. We all square?

Yeah.

Is that my order?

While you're down there, pick up that
order, please.

Bye -bye, son.

What do you want to talk about?

Yeah, yeah.

Okay, come on, you beloved agent.

We have work to do.

Our friend, Mr. Calhoun.

Here.

You just pay me regular in the month.

It was a nice fight we had, though,
yeah?

Yeah.

All right, Mr. Holmes. Come on down
here. We'll get the business taken care

I want those supplies delivered out to
the railhead the first thing in the

morning. As for all of these good
people, you'll take care of the details,

Details? Details? Like where's my money?

Mr. Spender, our undertaker.

Owe you for burying somebody, Mr.
Spender? No joke, Calhoun.

On the side, I have a fertilizer, feed,
and supply business.

The BPS &D owes me for two months.

Well, you just be patient and you'll get
to me soon enough.

Meanwhile, Mr. Holmes here will take
care of all the details.

And make sure that all charges are
submitted in triplicate and sent to the

office. Where?

Chicago, of course.

To the Union Pacific.

Send it here, Mr. Burton Standish,
first.

U .P., is that who's behind you?

Absolutely not.

No truth to the rumor at all that the
Union Pacific is backing me.

Oh, yes.

Of course.

Meanwhile, Debit might count, say, four,
five, ten thousand dollars.

Debit? What a count!

Good question, Mr. Holmes.

I'm going to give you some unpleasant
answers about Mr.

Ben Calvin.

Where's the paymaster?

Why, don't you believe it?

Make out the punches, and we'll have a
payday at the end of the week as usual.

Good citizens aren't going to let you
crawl out of this one, Ben.

That is, we have reason to believe that
you exaggerated your financial backing.

He means you conned him and the town.

Now, what are you talking about?

We'll be in scalp lock in eight days and
take title of 50 ,000 acres of prime

land. That'll back my credit.

A cell of Calhoun.

And we're supposed to stand around and
wait while you gamble with our money on

finishing inside your...

eight more days.

When we come steaming in the scalp lock,
you present your bills at that time.

No more waiting, Ben.

We're going to collect now.

We're going to take your tin pot
railroad and sell it off.

And I'm speaking for all of us against
just one of you.

No!

You're not going to stand up for
Calhoun.

No, not for him, but for me and for the
rest of these men. I didn't spend a year

of my life with the BPS &D for nothing.

I came out here to build...

Citizens using force. I agree with that
too, Mr. Holmes.

Mr. Calhoun, we have no choice. You have
your eight days.

Thank you, Mr. Holmes.

And the best of luck.

You men know you're not permitted in
the...

The Scarecler Fort, Ben.

My railroad, my crew, my responsibility.

He died for your railroad.

I'm afraid that's not good enough.

A man who dies, it should be for
something important.

Not just because he stood between a
thief and money.

What are you going to do?

I don't know.

I've never heard you say that before.

Something awfully final about a man
being killed.

I don't want to make a speech, Marta.

I just need time to see where I stand.

I could love you, Ben Carroll.

Come on.

It's been a bitter payday for you, and I
know it.

And your payroll's on its way. In the
meantime, let's get out there and show

them we can build that bridge in spite
of them.

We might make it, huh?

Yeah, we just might.

Played all the track this account,
Locke.

That bridge will hold together.

We're in clover.

Over in the gorge in a hundred little
pieces.

Well, let's just make it then.

How long before we can try it out?

Tomorrow with Locke.

I'm not counting on you.

I'm counting on you.

You just get out there and put a good
firm foundation under that free percent

yours.

It's a beautiful bridge, yeah, Mr.
Tarrant?

You're going to make your deadline.

Make it? We're going to beat it by a
whole day.

Isn't that something? And you did it,
Mr. Calhoun.

Maybe I did it.

Maybe we did it.

It means a good deal to you, doesn't it,
boy?

Well, I guess,

yes, sir, it does.

Why?

I'm what you might call a self -made
man.

Except I'm still in the making, so to
speak.

Mr.

Calhoun, I was drug up by the ears back
of the stockyards in Chicago.

Well, sort of an orphan, you know.

Which was my luck.

Because even when I was little, I knew
where I was going.

Where? Well, I was going to...

I'm going to be my own kind of man.

Like you, Mr. Calhoun.

You're going to build a railroad.

You're going to take a piece of this
world and put your mark on it. And

some doing.

And I want to help.

I want to be a part of something that
big.

That certain.

I'm not asking to carry it along, mind
you. No, sir. I just want the room to

make my own mark someday.

Big enough for the whole world to see?

Well, yeah, sure.

That too.

But mostly just big enough for me to
see.

Someday when I'm a man grown, I want to
look into a mirror and see myself there

in satisfactory condition.

Barnabas Rogers.

By his own hand.

Well, that's a man -sized reason,
Barnabas.

Something to grow up to for both of us.

Maybe you better get out there and help
build our railroad.

Yes, sir.

He's a romantic.

And you?

Gambler's either a cynic or a sucker.

Or a dreamer.

Yeah.

My dream's happening out there, right
now.

And you'll win.

You'll own a railroad, sit in the big
game for the high stakes, and make your

mark on the land.

Maybe.

Maybe you're right. Oh, I know I'm
right.

I'm always right. That's my virtue and
my flaw.

I can even admire romantic ambition, but
unfortunately I can't share it.

Ben, I'm a corrupt woman and I can only
take adventure in small doses.

You're too chancy a man for me.

You go ahead and build your railroad.

I'll ride it.

Back to Kansas City.

Hello.

I can't argue with you. the lady.

Good.

So let us just this once pretend that I
am a lady.

But let's not pretend for too long.

180, 200.

401, first thing.

That's a deal of money, Joy.

I bury a man for less than a hundred.

When you do them, they don't fight back.

That's why I'm hiring enough men to make
sure.

Dead sure.

It's going to be a distinct pleasure
doing Calhoun.

Spender, if you want to help, go out and
bring in a few more recruits.

Sturdy ones.

I'd steal my hat, would you?

Trapper?

Trapper? No, thank you. I don't need
anything.

Oh, now you don't understand.

You see, I got a problem.

Now, let me put it to you this way.

You hush up and run right along, or else
I have to split you right down the

middle. Hey, now, let's not take
offense. I got a proposition for you,

mean money.

What kind of money?

Big money.

You ever hear of the BP S &D?

What do I need an undertaker for?

Well, now, he's one of them fellas
figuring to blow up your locomotive

tomorrow.

That's Abel Spender.

Yeah. Well, he about run out of credit
with me.

Who else was in on this wrecking? Well,
let him do his own singing.

Come on,

old horse, say a little something.

Oh, no? Well, then...

Joy! Lucas, Joy!

We hired a bunch of hired cases to jump
your train just this side of Scout

Block. Oh, please!

It's tomorrow morning.

We got the jump on them. We won't go
tomorrow morning.

We'll go today.

They picked up Spender.

That man will spill like a busted water
jug.

We won't wait for tomorrow. We'll hit
him today.

Like you say, but it's a downright
peculiar way of making money.

Peculiar or not, just remember,

You're all first -class shots, so be
sure you don't hit anybody.

Just distract them while I get on that
train.

I want Calhoun's last ride to be an
exciting one.

Go.

Nice and easy.

No.

No pushing.

By all the steam, if I want to go in
there, Calhoun's not going to praise the

glory, huh?

Right.

In fact, we'll be in scalp lock in about
five minutes.

Goodbye, Mr. Calhoun.

Shane, I do apologize.

But you're going to be part of Ben
Calhoun's moment of glory.

Scalpel, I wanted a railroad.

They're going to get one.

Right in their laps.

Excuse me.

You're not coming in like that, are you,
Mr. Calhoun?

I mean, you represent BPS &D.

You got a point, Bartlett.

Huh?

Surprise at you, Morta.

Stranger, take advantage of you like
that?

Think of it, you never met my ex
-partner, did you?

He's your partner. What's he doing with
a bomb?

Ex -partner.

Bomb!

I've made arrangements for you to meet
the Union Pacific at Buffalo Pass.

Bon voyage.

Good journey to you, Ben.

Do you ever get to Kansas City?

Don't look me up. I always cut my
losses.

Miley Purdy.

But kind of hard on the digestion, I
reckon.

I owe you another round of thanks,
friend.

Where are you heading now?

Going up into the mountain.

Maybe get me some beaver. Maybe just
hunker down where there ain't no people.

Oh, I'll be back by and by.

Things run nice and lively around you,
Ben.

And you, boy, I went out and caught
something for you.

There you are. Don't even fight me. Come
on now. Don't you be fighting me. There

you go.

What is it?

Boy, you're purely ignorant.

That there thing's a raccoon.

What'll I call him?

Call him Ulysses.

We're still on good terms with the
president.

As long as the president don't know
about it.

Well, I'll see you when the wind turns.

Yes, sir!

I purely enjoy taking my comfort
business.

Yes, except for a little problem, Dan.
It seems that old Buckeye Sullivan

exactly arrange for a definite right -of
-way.

Then who will?

I will.

All right.

You get busy.

By the time you've got the next 18 miles
of track laid, I'll have the right -of

-way cleared to the next town.

You just keep the tracks coming,
partner.

We'll build ourselves a railroad.

Right come on part of us
