L'assalto al treno postale (1950)
Nel 1869, gli Stati Uniti avviano un servizio postale su rotaia verso la costa occidentale che si rivela molto allettante per i rapinatori di treni, in particolare per una banda organizzata che ha al suo soldo uno dei presunti guardiani della posta. Il pugile Steve Davis, ex uomo dei servizi segreti dell'esercito, viene ingaggiato per scovare la banda e salvare il servizio postale territoriale. Steve va sotto copertura nella prigione territoriale, impara il codice Morse da un compagno di prigionia, evade la prigione, si infiltra nella banda... e trova il tempo di avere una storia d'amore con la cantante di balera Mary, che dimostra di avere delle profondità nascoste...
