Ben Buckley saves passengers by routing runaway stock train
In a violent gale on Beverly hill a stock train breaks loose. Ben Buckley, a rookie brakeman, races through rain and ice to switch the siding and derail the runaway, saving five hundred travelers on the excursion car. Andy Cameron, the engineman, survives a brutal wreck. Ben receives a token watch and lasting respect from fellow railroad men.
