A young woman must step up as the engineer of the Overland Express on a stormy night.

A nostalgic look back at the railroads tonight. Robert Jefferson reads about the joys of  reading the Railroad Guide which listed all the active train lines in the US. The featured story is a reairing of our 3D Radio Production of The Night Run Of the Overland. When her husband is too sick to fill in as the engineer on an important run of the Express, Sylvia steps up to the controls of the large locomotive.
