Killing blood / by McKee, Robert D.,1948-author.(CARDINAL)346799;
What sort of men rob a train, and after they have their loot and can make a clean getaway, start shooting everyone on board? Billy Young doesn't know the answer to that question. But one of the passengers they kill is his brother, and Billy intends to do whatever it takes to find out. Once he does, he'll exact his vengeance. He'll do it with pleasure. And he'll exact it in blood.Wyoming is now a state and the legislature down in Cheyenne is making plenty of brand new laws. But not much has changed out on the range. The big outfits still make the rules, and if the little operators and the lawyers and the politicians don't like it―well, there are ways to convince them otherwise. That is a lesson they plan to teach everyone who needs to learn it. They try to teach it to nineteen-year-old Billy Young, but Billy is stubborn. And a slow learner. There's only one rule Billy cares about-the most basic rule of all: Blood for Blood.

Train to Cheyenne / by Unruh, David.(CARDINAL)497041;
Young James Whipwell believes there is more to life than working on his father's farm in Indiana. The Civil War has been over for five years, the transcontinental railroad is opening the West, and he wants to be on his own, away from the farm. The conditional offer of a deputy's job in Wyoming convinces him to break with his domineering father and head west. Jimmy boards the westbound Pacific Express in Fort Wayne, the same train that carries Mary Ann Bringham, who is traveling to be reunited with her father, the Marshal, in Cheyenne, Wyoming. When Jimmy meets Mary Ann, their attraction is instantly felt, but when a gang stops the train near Cheyenne, neither Jimmy nor Marshal Bringham can prevent the robbery and the kidnapping of his beautiful new friend.
