A waste disposal company has a Russian nuclear bomb to transport, and an
employee decides to save money by concealing it on a freight train. The
train, also loaded with hazardous and flammable chemicals, suffers a brake
failure and becomes a runaway heading for Denver. A wreck would be bad
enough, but much, much worse if the bomb goes off. A heroic NTSB
investigator boards the train; he and the railwaymen try various ways to stop
the train, but nothing works. Meanwhile Denver residents are struggling to
collect their families and then leave town, despite rioters and gridlock. Will
the
train have to be derailed to stop it? If it does derail, will the bomb explode,
and if it does, what then?
