Early Wayne vehicle has the Duke as the partner of Treacy in a small trucking firm that begins to steal business from rival trucker Mason. Meanwhile, Wayne romances Latimer away from the head of the railroad shipping department, von Eltz. Things go sour when the evil Mason sets events
into motion that cause the death of Treacy in a nitro explosion. Wayne, who joins up with big-time truck operator McWade, puts Mason out of business, but the murderer joins forces with von Eltz, leading to a cross-country race between Wayne's trucks and von Eltz's train to prove which method of
shipping is faster. Deceptive title leads most fans to believe the film is a Wayne western.
