Just before the horse and riders encounter the arriving train, the train is seen passing through a field: steel hydro towers are in the near background, and very obvious.

Not my favorite way to end Season 1

A long train ride to the fair in Sacremento finds the Barkley siblings without their mother for a day, and Audra gets appendicitis. Of course, the only doctor on board is on the run from a family out for revenge because he did not save the mother in that family, so Audra getting needed surgery right away is complicated.

Lots of angst for Audra, lots of anger against the doctor from the men chasing him, lots of insecurity by the doctor - in short, nothing that isn't the usual fare in this kind of story.

Good acting by all, but the plot is just kind of - eh. Very predictable, no surprises at all, just a lot of worrying for the little girl among them while the menfolk deal with each other's problems.
