Documentary that tells the tales of those who sought romance and excitement on America's freight trains by living the hobo life, but instead found a haven of crime. From the Civil War to the Great Depression, over 4 million people rode the rails. The program reveals how a group of rail riders known as FTRA evolved from a loose-knit group of hobos into a violent gang terrorizing the rails and preying on the "civilians" who wandered into their world.
