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.

Struggled a bit the first season, but the 2nd proved just how good this show can be. Westerns are rare on television these days, and HELL ON WHEELS is one of the best. Reminds me of the awesome DEADWOOD.

This is such an awesome show. AMC, with Walking Dead, and Mad Men is setting the bar for excellence. I pray they renew Hell on Wheels.
