Summary:
George Adams is a railroad steam-engine handyman in Cushing, Oklahoma, circa 1952. Increasing reliance upon the diesel engine has rendered George's job obsolete; the only employment he can find is as a night watchman, which subjects him to ridicule from the community. George struggles to hold his home and family together, despite such roadblocks as a tattered relationship with his wife Joan Hackett, a brief affair with the town temptress Anjanette Comer, a fistic bout with the local business bigwig, and a nocturnal tussle with a gang of bank robbers.
