Evocative of the well directed costume musicals of the era. George Sidney directs this western mixed with song and laughter. As the population moves west there is a need for Fred Harvey's railroad station restaurants, and prim and proper waitresses try to influence the rowdy citizens they encounter. Ensemble cast includes:Judy Garland, John Hodiak, Preston Foster, Angela Lansbury and Chill Wills. Garland is the proper city girl and Lansbury is the rowdy dance hall girl the story gravitates around. Highlight is the Oscar winning tune "On the Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe".
