Honoring early Chinese immigrants' contributions to building America
In a tale of camaraderie amidst adversity, 'Railroad' explores the mid-19th century as Li Shao, a Chinese immigrant drawn by the gold rush, befriends Strobridge, the determined Irish American Engineer overseeing the railroad construction. Battling prejudice from their white counterparts, Li unites a band of Chinese laborers with Irish workers, defying insurmountable challenges to construct the transformative transcontinental railroad that unites America from coast to coast.
