Catch is: the train is carrying a Gatling gun and twenty deputy US marshals who know they're coming. Caught and sentenced to hang, their old enemy -- Marshal L.C. Bledsoe -- shows up at the last minute to spare their lives. For a price. He'll let them live if they hunt down their old gang, the Snake River Marauders, and kill those prairie rats.
