What happens
Wild Bill Hickok and his partner Jingles ride a special train into Lonesome Valley after railroad builders are stopped by armed men. Mr. Hamilton, the railroad superintendent, hopes Bill can break the blockade that has halted construction. Bill and Jingles face gunfire near the valley's edge and then go looking for the gang's leader, a gigantic man with a large black beard. The episode is part of the Wild Bill Hickok series, which was broadcast on January 6, 1954, with Guy Madison as Wild Bill and Andy Devine as Jingles.

Written from the episode itself; it never gives away the ending. Every recording is remastered for the stream: cleaned of rumble, hiss and mains hum (and the old TV whine where we found it), then levelled in two passes to steady broadcast loudness, so one show is never quieter than the next.
