20 Things That ACTUALLY Happened in Wild West Trains That Hollywood Still Gets Wrong This video counts down twenty real things that happened on Wild West trains, from the news butchers who sold fruit and novels in the aisles and the railway post offices that swapped mail on the fly, to Fred Harvey's Harvey Girls, the iron coal stoves and link-and-pin couplers that maimed brakemen, and the frontier's true killer, the head-on wreck. It also covers three-card monte on the Union Pacific, buffalo shot from train windows, the emigrant cars and Pullman porters, and the standard time zones that ended the era of local noon.
