Western stagecoach lines are profitable but supremely dangerous business, what between the inhospitable terrain, thieving outlaws, not to mention the cost of keeping relay stations and teams of horses every fifteen miles. But just imagine if someone invented mechanical horses that did not tire and a bulletproof stagecoach impervious to all bandits. The man capable of such genius would become a millionaire in no time flat! Can steam virtuoso Frank Reade be that man?
