Smells great.

Where's the salt and pepper?

Why don't you try
tasting it before you go

changing my recipe?

Sure.

Good beans.

Could I have some salt and pepper?

Well if it isn't Axel Ericson.

Strike it rich yet?

Oh, not yet Lotta,

any day now though.

I saw that weird light
up by my claim again.

Here we go again.

Time to leave.

Amazing sight, that light just floating

across the hillside all by itself.

Fascinating story behind that light.

Maybe the first 100 times.

Makes my mouth go all
dry just thinking about it.

Alright Axel.

Rosey, give him a whiskey, on the house.

Ooh, thank you.

Hi.

I think it's interesting.

I'd like to see a ghost, wouldn't you?

Nope, don't believe in 'em.

Lucky Luke, I swear.

You don't believe in anything.

Lucky Luke.

That's the lowdown skunk
who sent me to prison.

Superstitious about
spilling a little salt?

Mm. Just right.

Don't anybody wanna hear
the story of the ghost train

of the Chinati Mountains?

No!

Mr. Ericson, I'd like to
buy you a drink if I may.

Oh, much obliged, miss.

Do I know you?

I'm Becky O'Toole.

I'd like your story for the first issue

of the Frontier Enquirer.

And you shall
have it missy, yes.

Oh, thank you.

You see that picture up there?

20 years ago, before
there was a Daisy Town,

that train used to run
through these parts.

I was heading West to make my fortune,

but even then I knew how
dangerous the desert could be

in a cloudburst.

Huh?

I said what's going on here?

Whaddya mean, no refunds?

I ain't takin' no train
out in weather like this!

Sir, you are more likely to
be trampled by your own horse

to be killed in a train wreck.

Is there a problem?

I mean, are we leaving or not?

I just got a wire from the next town,

it's dry up ahead.

Son, you ever see a flash flood?

One minute, it's dry as a bone.

Next, a wall of water's washing
whole towns off to the Gulf!

The dispatcher says
this train leaves on time,

with or without passengers.

Well you heard the
man, folks. All aboard!

All aboard!

All aboard!

Railroad said that the
engineer was drunk that night.

Nothing of that train or its
crew was ever seen again.

Except, some nights, up at my mine,

I see a light floating
across that old ravine

just like as if the
trestle was still there.

That's the headlamp of the ghost train,

coming for me.

I wish it'd hurry up.

Thanks Mr. Ericson.

If you'll excuse me, I have to set this up

for tomorrow's edition.

Watch where you're going, young lady.

Sorry Mr. Landon.

I should know better than
to get in a banker's way.

Oh, you know who I am.

Well it surprises me that
someone who is so well informed

would consider publishing
such a ludicrous story.

Any reason why you wouldn't
want to see it in print?

On the contrary, I hope
you print every word.

Axel.

Will you join me?

Alright, time is running out.

The railroad wants an
answer about your land.

Well, that's a mighty
generous offer, but

see, I'm getting close to the mother lode.

That land is worthless and you know it.

Daisy Town needs the
railroad and you're blocking

the only route in.

Actually captain, I'm doing you a favor.

That line's jinxed.

Any train that runs, it's
gonna meet the same fate.

That's exactly what I
thought you would say.

Ooh, new bank calendar?

It's not a calendar, you idiot.

It's a summons.

In two days, the circuit
judge will be here

for your sanity hearing!

I'd rather have a calendar.

Ain't nothing fine about that print,

I can't even read it!

It says if you become
mentally incompetent,

the bank can take over your land.

Axel's not crazy, he's just...

colorful.

Yeah, but holding on
to a played out mine

and going around town
telling ghost train stories

doesn't make him sound...

Testy! I know.

Yeah but that's no reason
to take his property.

Unless Landon does something
to make Axel look crazy.

Don't worry, it won't happen.

Justice is mine.

If there's one thing I hate,

it's dragging out drunks!

Well what about dogs?

And don't forget your hat!

Get outta here, Bushwhack.

Not a bad night.

After we deduct the usual damage,

I think we turned a profit.

That's 'cause they
didn't break the mirror.

I can't believe it, they
always break the mirror.

Where's Luke?

I don't know. What's wrong?

I seen it! I more than
seen it, I heard it!

And it's coming for me!

What is?

The ghost train!

Oh, now Axel, you promised Luke

you'd stop seeing that train.

I told ya, I heard it too!

Heard the engine, heard
the wailing whistle.

Heard the clanging bell!

Alright alright, we believe you.

Here. Calm down.

I don't want a drink!

I said it's coming for me!

Lotta, you gotta hide me.

You gotta hide me!

Sure, sure, I've got the perfect place.

Rosey, could you give me a hand?

- No! No!
- Come on in.

Stay here, this is my room.

It's alright.

You just need some rest.

Don't, don't leave me!

- It's alright.

I'll lock the door.

Just stomp on the floor if you need me.

Morning Ben, sleep well?

Never asked me that.

Watch your spurs!

Howdy, cousin.

Hmm, they let mules park here too now.

What's Axel's mule doing here?

Oh, Axel's upstairs sleeping.

Luke, I've never seen
him so scared in my life.

He said the ghost train's after him.

I better talk to him.

Don't do anything to upset him.

Axel?

Beans again.

Axel?

Well, he wasn't robbed.

You're right, case closed, let's go.

What's he up to?

Looking for trouble, as usual.

Hmph, and he calls me Jumper.

This place gives me the whinnies.

Maybe Axel left town.

Without that mule of his?

No way, not Axel.

Well then maybe there is a ghost train.

Axel said it shows up at night.

Why don't we ride out there at sunset

and see for ourselves?

That's a waste of time.

You and me, out on a buckboard at night,

how could that possible
be a waste of time?

That's not what I meant.

This whole ghost train
story is full of beans.

Sorry Lotta, but I'm not superstitious.

Aha!

You always go out of
your way to avoid walking

under a ladder.

And that's not superstitious?

Oops. You alright Miss Legs?

It's not superstition,
it's common sense.

Thanks Ming Li.

I'll be in next month with my other shirt.

Titus, why does everyone
in town call me Ming Li?

My personal name is Li
Fu, my family name, Ming.

Now wait a minute.

You're telling me that your
first name is your last name,

and your middle name is your first name,

and your last name is your middle name?

You understand!

I don't know what the devil I'm saying!

It's your goddang laundry.

It's all very simple.

You call me Li Fu, or Mr. Ming.

Or, Ming Li Fu.

Oh.

I see.

Thanks.

You are welcome.

See ya Ming Li.

See ya Ming Li.

Howdy, Ming Li.

Ming Li, Ming li.

How you like it if I call you Luke Lucky?

Whatever you want, Ming Li.

Ming Li, didn't you
once tell me you came West

to work on a railroad?

Actually, I came East.

You mean you were born out West?

Never mind, Li Fu in no
more mood for explaining.

Was 20 years ago.

So you know about that train
wreck Axel was talking about.

Not much.

The railroad never
consulted with us coolies,

so I changed careers.

Darn, you're the only one
besides Axel I could ask.

Not so.

Landon never remembered Ming Li Fu,

but I recall him back then.

Some big shot with railroad.

Our banker, a railroad man.

Do me a favor, don't
mention this to anyone.

I'm bursting with the
news, but I will keep it

under my hat.

Ming Li, can you save this gown?

I soaked it in water as soon as I could

but it's made it worse.

You missed a spot here.

It came all the way from St. Louis.

Uh oh, whitewash. Not good.

Maybe you could paint the dress white,

use it for wedding dress.

Not likely.

I will do what I can.

Thank you.

Lotta,

where you going?

Up to the old trestle,
by myself, thank you.

I'll find out what's going on.

I can't let you go alone.

You can't?

You might need some protection up there.

Um...

wait.

Here, take Bushwhack.

Thanks, I feel so much better now.

Lookie here now.

Since

Axel Ericson

vanished

after refusing

to.

Sell out to.

Landon's bank,

foul play

cannot be

ruled out.

And I bet he did
something to him too! Huh?

Simmer down folks, Landon's
never been out of my sight.

And I bet Axel shows up tomorrow.

That ain't what the newspaper said.

And you believe everything you read.

I can't read.

You're a mechanic, too.

My pop taught me all about engines,

but I was set on being a journalist.

Comes in handy, doesn't it?

I can do 40 copies a minute,

once I work up a good head of steam.

You already did that
outside, and you know very well

that Landon hasn't been near Axel.

I never said he was, only that he stood

to benefit if Axel disappeared.

So do you, it's sure selling papers.

If you'll excuse me, I just got a scoop.

I have to put out a special edition.

Wait here Bushwhack.

Ming Li, did you tell
anyone about Landon?

How could I, I've been
working on this dress

ever since you left.

Why that darn crazy saloon lady
wear a nice dress to paint?

Bushwhack, something's coming!

Sic 'em. Sic 'em!

You may be man's best friend

but you're no help to a lady! Hyah!

Y'all folks listen to this!

Listen up!

Ben Landon, who used
to work for the railroad,

now owns Daisy Town Bank.

Used to work for the railroad?

If there's one thing I
hate worse than a banker,

it's a railroad man!

Yeah.

I bet he done in old Axel for certain!

I'll bet so!

Yeah!

Zeb, Titus.

I know you boys don't
wanna start any trouble.

Eh-eh-ah, no, no. Sir.

We just wanna find out what
happened to our pal Axel.

Ah, you mean the pal you wanted to throw

out of the saloon yesterday.

Well, absence does make
the heart grow fonder.

You mean, absinthe.

Now listen.

There's an explanation for all this,

and I'm gonna find it.

Luke! Luke!

I know what happened to Axel!

It was that banker feller, right!

No!

Listen to her.

It was the ghost train, I saw it!

No, don't listen to her.

A ghost train?

Luke, I wouldn't make it up!

I-I-I saw, I heard it, the
bells, the clanging, everything!

You gotta protect me until sunup,

or I'm gonna disappear just like Axel did!

Lotta.

Alright, let's go.

I want everyone off the street, now!

Y'hear that?

More railroad trouble.

Now this town's got a goddang curse on it.

And we know who's to
blame for it, don't we?

- That's right!

You'll be safe here.

Thanks.

I feel better already.

Good. Just sit here a minute.

Okay.

Luke, what are you doing?

I'm protecting you, these
bars are an inch thick.

I ask for emotional support
and you put me in prison?

Sorry, I can't have
you stirring up the town.

Luke, a lynch mob is
forming on the edge of town.

Well, you did it.

I never wanted this.

I'm after the truth, not a lynching.

Luke, come on.

Please don't leave me.

They're probably just going to a barbecue.

Yup.

I know who they're gonna barbecue.

Huh? What?

Virgil, as long as
you're up, go to Landon

and tell him to lie low.

Sure Luke.

You gonna guard the prisoner?

I am not a prisoner.

Becky, keep an eye on Lotta.

Luke, please!

The ghost train's coming!

Howdy.

Howdy!

That's close enough, stranger.

Who are you?

I said that's close enough.

You hard of hearing?

How dare you point a gun
at a duly appointed judge?

You're the circuit judge?

I'm the Honorable Judge Rinehart.

Oh, I'm sorry.

I'm Sheriff Luke, I
didn't expect you tonight.

What?

You'll have to speak up,
my ears are all closed up.

Nobody told me there would be
all this sagebrush out West,

I'm allergic to sagebrush.

I'd better ride in with you.

Folks aren't too friendly tonight.

I'd like to have a word
with you before the hearing.

Well you heard wrong.

I never wore an earring.

Some judge.

Now, about Axel.

You know what I hate
most about the West?

In every Western town I always
find the source of trouble

is some crackpot who
can't keep his mouth shut.

If it was up to me, I'd
throw them all in jail.

Now, what about this Axel fellow?

It'll keep.

There, what's going on?

Barbecue.

You can stable your horse right here.

Barbecue?

And he says this isn't a friendly town.

Come on out here Landon!

We got something for ya!

Come on out Landon!

This has gone far enough!

No it ain't.

We're inviting the banker
to a little necktie party.

Yeah!

Bring him out!

That won't bring Axel back.

Well it'll sure
make us feel a lot better.

Yeah!

It'll sure make Landon
feel like dancin'!

Enough talking. Let's burn him out!

Jeez. Sure got dark all of a sudden.

Yup, and my aim isn't
as good in the dark.

Well uh, maybe this ain't the best time

for a necktie party.

We'll just have to
reschedule for another night.

Right.

Alright.

Why didn't you arrest those rioters?

It wouldn't be much of a trial.

You couldn't find 12
jurors who weren't here.

Well then I want to be protected.

I sent my deputy over to warn you.

Deputy?

You call that a deputy?

Umm.

Well, wanna see why
everybody's so riled up?

Why'd you keep this a secret?

Alright, I'm working with the railroad.

We're putting together a land deal.

But I had nothing to do
with Axel's disappearance.

Maybe not.

But if I were you, I'd stay
out of sight for a while.

Not on your 10-type.

I'm a banker, I'm supposed to be hated.

I'm not afraid of these
superstitious morons.

Well then.

Nice guy, that banker.

What?

Overtime again?

What were all those shots?

Only one man can shoot
that fast, Lucky Luke.

Ohhh.

I don't want innocent people shot!

Luke's just showing off!

Knocking guns out of their hands,

shooting off their suspenders,
he loves that stuff.

I have to see.

Becky, no!

Don't leave me alone!

I didn't believe in the
ghost train, not really.

Not until I saw it with my own eyes.

Becky, I am so scared!

Lotta,

what if I told you that
I saw the ghost train?

What?

Evening, judge.

Sheriff, may I have a word with you?

Sure, come on in.

I'll need a courtroom tomorrow morning.

Judge, there's something
you should know about Axel.

He may seem strange but...

Luke! You let me outta here!

Uh oh.

Uh, on second thought.

I know just the place for your courtroom.

Oh good, where?

The saloon.

Absolutely not, you're not gonna get me

into one of those things.

Sorry I,

I thought you said balloon.

I'm afraid of heights.

The saloon will do just fine.

Oh God, why did I ever leave Delaware?

Judge, if you could give
Axel a couple more days,

I'm sure he'll show up.

That's impossible.

If I stay two more days,
my head will explode!

Alright. Alright, alright!

I'll postpone the hearing
until tomorrow night,

but that's it.

Thanks judge. I better
start looking for Axel.

Luke!

Lotta's gone.

Gone where?

Gone nowhere, she
vanished from her cell!

And I bet you saw the ghost train too.

Luke, it was so strange.

Lotta was locked in her cell.

I only glanced away for a second

but when I turned back, she just...

wasn't there.

Alright, let's go.

Axel was telling the truth!

Let's go see for our own selves.

Luke, this means that I'm next.

The ghost train's got her!

This town's haunted! Let me outta here!

Becky?

What is it?

Why is everyone so excited?

Becky.

You in here?

Sorry. I scare you?

Nope, ghosts don't tap
people on the shoulder.

Ghost?

Have you seen Becky O'Toole?

Don't know her.

What ghost?

Here, read this.

This is tomorrow's paper.

Why did they bring
tomorrow's paper, today?

The question's how.

Luke! Come back!

The ghost trains will get you too!

Train's coming.

It's alright Jumper.

Hope it doesn't take livestock.

Pretty solid for a ghost.

I knew that.

Doggone it Luke, we thought
you was Landon out there.

This yours, Becky?

Oh Luke, why can't you for
once just believe in something?

Because I knew it was a hoax

when I saw her steam press was missing.

Darned good hoax too,
sure had me fooled.

Me too.

When Becky told us how she did it,

well, we just had to help her, that's all.

But how did you get
Lotta out of a locked cell?

I'm a good mechanic, remember?

Lotta, why didn't you tell me?

'Cause you were so smug
about not believing in ghosts.

I'm sorry Luke.

I guess you were pretty worried about me.

Nah.

I didn't mean to scare
anybody but Landon.

When I heard Axel's ghost
train story, it seemed perfect.

Why Landon?

You never even met him.

No...

but you see, my real name isn't O'Toole.

It's Becky Kelly.

You're the engineer's daughter?

Yes.

And Landon was the dispatcher.

The train wreck was Landon's fault.

But he blamed my father.

He told everyone Pop was drunk that night.

He wasn't.

Becky's gone through
all this to get Landon

to admit his guilt.

Well it won't be legal
unless he admits it in court.

And the hearing's tomorrow.

Bet that darn judge is really
gonna think I'm crazy now.

Forgive me Axel, it's my fault

you're gonna lose your land.

It won't happen.

You're gonna shoot the banker?

I can't break the law,
but I can bend it a little.

You gonna beat him up?

I'll see to it you
have your day in court.

Luke, you really think justice is blind?

Not only blind, this
week it's hard of hearing.

But judge, it's Axel's
mine that's at stake here.

You've got to go see for yourself.

Convene my courtroom out of doors?

It's noht dignuhfied.

Well I guess you're right,
the mountain's not the place.

Especially after that
brush fire last week.

Did you say fire?

Uh-huh.

Does that mean no sagebrush?

No sagebrush.

Well that's different.

I'll hear the case up
at the mine. (Sneezes)

I don't like coming up here at night.

What if the you-know-what comes by?

Oh there ain't no spooks gonna show up

with all these folks around.

Ah, yeah, sagebrush is in bloom.

Ugh.

I hade to have been heah befaw da fire.

Order please.

Circuit court of Daisy
Town is now in session.

The Honorable Harry
Salacious Rinehart presiding.

Is the complainant, Ben Landon, present?

That's me, your honor.

And the defendant, Axel Ericson?

In view of the late hour, we will proceed.

You may present your evidence.

I quote, from an
interview with Axel Ericson,

day before yesterday.

-The first time I saw the ghost train...-

What?

What was that?

I said, I quote...

Never mind, bring it
to the bench, I can read.

What was that?

I don't know.

What'd it sound like to you?

I didn't hear a thing.

And get your grubby hands off me.

Are you telling me you didn't hear that?

Shut up you fool, I
tell you it's the wind.

And I suppose that's crickets!

It's the ghost train!

I had to grab supper on the run.

Did I miss anything good?

- What is that sound?

I'm sorry, it always
happens when I eat beans.

No, no.

A train!

A train? Are you crazy?

There hasn't been a train
through here in 20 years.

Listen, it's right out there.

Where?

What are you babbling about?

My God man, can't you hear it?

Hear? Hear what?

This can't be happening to me.

I must be dreaming. Ow!

Nope, you're awake.

It's Axel!

I'm in no mood for courtroom theatrics.

Just present your case
and let the evidence

speak for itself.

I tell you Axel was right there!

Ben, you've been spending
too much time in the vault.

Oh Mr. Dispatcher.

No one, no one knows about that!

We do, and we have room for one more!

We're waiting.

I'm waiting to hear this case.

No. No!

No, this can't be happening.

I must get control of myself!

You have any further evidence?

Oh the evidence, yes.

I have...

Mr. Landon!

You should have been on that train!

You're the only one seeing ghosts.

It must be you they're after!

Why Ben? Why?

I'm the one who wrecked their train!

I killed that crew!

I, I was the dispatcher.

I knew there was gonna be flooding,

but I wanted to keep on schedule.

So I didn't warn Kelly.

It wasn't his fault, it was mine!

Please!

Please don't let the ghost train get me!

Did I hear right?

He's confessing to that old train wreck?

Yup.

Please protect me!

Lock me up! Lock me up!

This court declares
Axel Ericson to be sane.

At worst, he can't be half
as crazy as the plaintiff.

As for you Ben Landon,
for criminal negligence,

I'm sentencing you to five
years of territorial prison.

Oh, thank you!

Thank you!

Anything to be rid of this curse!

What, what? What was that?

He said, it could have been worse.

Mister, five years of hard
labor is nothing to sneeze at.

That does it.

I'm riding out of this weed lot tonight.

Judge, take me with you!

Judge, take me with you!

This is one dress you were
happy to get caught dead in.

Ming Li, you shoulda seen
Landon riding outta town.

Every time the judge sneezed,
banker jumped a foot.

That was great.

How did you make Becky vanish like that?

Oh, you'll have to ask Becky.

Didn't she come in with you?

No, I thought she was with you.

Li Fu was anxious to
meet this Becky O'Toole.

By the way, it's not Becky O'Toole.

It's Becky Kelly.

She's the daughter of that engineer.

Not possible!

Li Fu knew Becky Kelly.

She died in train wreck with her father.

20 years ago.

Oh, come on.

You ever look close at this picture?

The Lonesomest Cowboy In
The West by Arlo Guthrie

? Of all the lonesome cowboys in the West

? I figure I've got to be the lonesomest

? I wanna ride the range where
there's lots of elbow room

? Hear the wind blow free
and smell the sagebrush bloom

? Gotta be on my ownsome,
singing my lonesome

? Cowboy blues

? Yes I'm the lonesomest cowboy

? That I know

? But when it comes to courtin' and such

? I move real slow

? Met a purty gal itchin'
to get hitched the other day

? My horse got so upset
we rode the other way

? I gotta be on my ownsome,
singing my lonesome

? Cowboy blues

? Some folks think it's heaven in a hotel

? With their puffed-up pillows
and their quilts piled high

? Well I don't hanker for no hotel

? Just wanna kick my boots
off by the campfire's glow

? While the lonely coyotes cry

? Well my bed is my horse and saddle
