In Colorado, in the days when the railroad was king, two towns are vying for train station for a new railroad. When one town’s representative learns that the rail owner’s wife covets the Naulahka, a jeweled girdle in India, he journeys there to get it for her and becomes embroiled in a plan to save the heir to the throne before returning home to find out the fate of his town’s quest.
