A short train, consisting of locomotive, tender, one car, and caboose, moved south along the spur line of the Union Pacific that ran east of Frontier Town. The enchanted hills rose to the right of the engineer, Murphy, while on his left flowed the Powder Horn River. The train slowed as it crossed the overland trail, and a minute later came to a halt near Rim Rock Bridge, where Milo Phillips - publisher of the South West Bugle stood waiting.
