Already slowed, a small town railroad has anounced that it is ceasing regular service, meaning the end of the line for a generation who relied on it. People on both sides of the tracks, like barkeeper Alex, town drunk Zelda and elderly Father Michael will feel the effects. What's left of old Main St. is already in shambles, but now that the trains are about to stop, things threaten to get even worse. In a bar close to the dock, railroad Vice President Frank Still reveals himself as carrying the message: the last train will be coming down the tracks soon. He is a villified man, but only doing his job. In this short play alliances are drawn and re-drawn, each turn coming with increasingly dangerous consequences. When the smoke clears, someone will be left to pick up the pieces, with the weight of a dying town on their shoulders.
