Tell them a great shame fills my heart.

North Platte 300 miles
west of Omaha October, 1866
:36:50
2 rails every 30 seconds, one on each side.
:36:53
4 rails to the minute.
:36:54
3 strokes per spike, 10 spikes per rail.
:36:57
400 rails to the mile.

gets beyond the reach of any town.
:37:15
And men deprived of their diversions
are inclined to get restless.
:37:18
So if they can't come to town,

:37:23
You get my meaning?

:37:34
Right here.
:37:36
Right here is where we're gonna
stake our own little claim.
:37:40
Our own little empire.

Good work.
:37:44

It's just gonna be father, me, and jackson.
