Synopsis/Details
Ben and his young son, Jay, made their annual trip to the museum. This year, Jay wanted to see the antique train displays, and Ben readily obliged. He was an old-west history buff and enjoyed seeing the museum’s period-accurate dioramas. When Jay spied the Railroad Wing, he dashed ahead, leaving Ben trailing behind. Ben ran up the ram of the train station, hit his head, and awoke in Adair, Iowa, on July 21, 1873. He was dressed in western clothes. He learned he was the father of Jesse James and that his gang was going the train. Jesse left Ben behind when the men rode out of town. Ben told the sheriff, who assembled a posse, and they all rode out and stopped the train robbery. But during the shootout, Ben received a head wound, passed out, and awoke back in the museum. As Ben recovered, he wondered if he altered history’s time-line.
