Corrected entry: The circuit judge arrives on the stagecoach and complains that the railroad has no spur line to Medicine Bow. But the town has had a railroad connection and station all along: it's seen in nearly every episode, including the opening and closing scenes of this one.

Jean G

Correction: The judge isn't complaining that Medicine Bow had no railroad going through, he just said he wished the railroad would put in spur lines. He made no mention of Medicine Bow and what we see is a main line. There's a big difference between the two, spur lines are short, and often cheap, but allow smaller towns without a railroad going through to connect to a main line. The Judge wished the small town he came from had a spur line connecting it to the main line (or spur lines directly to Medicine Bow, making it a hub).
