A drama focused on the 1865 settlement that accompanied the first transcontinental railroad project.
When America's first transcontinental railroad project got underway in 1865, it was referred to as "Hell on Wheels" by the inhabitants of the settlement that accompanied its construction.
From surveyors and support workers to prostitutes and mercenaries, characters of all kinds made this mobile encampment their home.

Yay!!! Now I have something to look forward to with a Season 3 coming soon. AMC has been giving us the type of high quality shows that one would see on pay channels. Hell on Wheels is the first western I have loved in a long time. The writing, the production, the acting. It is all so excellent, I can feel like I'm there, feeling what they are feeling. One can't go wrong with this series. Well, except it has sex, hard language, bloody violence and mature themes. So, parents with young children would probably want to put them to bed before indulging themselves.

This has been a riveting show as others have said. The character development has been sophisticated and deep. There have been many images that were compelling and visceral. The twists have been unexpected, to say the least! I can't believe they killed off Lily Bell! I am looking forward to the next season, the sooner the better!

Wonderful Western drama with great characters, dialogue and action. Realistic and gritty, it also has adult drama and Shakespearean tragedy. So glad it's returning for Season 3. Now, to get the show runner search finished and get Season 3 filming! All of us who are HELL ON WHEELS fans are having "withdrawal" pangs.
