The series explores the railroad's institutionalized greed and corruption, the immigrant experience, the plight of the newly emancipated African-Americans during Reconstruction, and the ravaging of the Native American land and people, in the name of progress. The main story concerns Confederate soldier Cullen Bohannon (Anson Mount) and his quest for revenge over the wartime death of his wife.
