In this upbeat western for NBC, practically no one in a one-horse town supports the big guy after his plans to start a community around the railroad falls through–all except one woman (Susan Clark), obviously a smart cookie. Blocker’s blacksmith John Killibrew thinks a submerged steam engine can save the town, and hopefully redeem himself with the townsfolk, but first he has to persuade the locals and an Indian tribe. "
