Its 1869 and the United States has begun railroad mail service to the West Coast - but this proves to be a highly tempting target for outlaw train robbers! An organized gang has one of the mail’s supposed guardians in their pay and is getting the inside scoop on the schedules and choice loot! The United States Postal Service is up in arms, but they hire former army intelligence officer turned prizefighter Steve Davis (Stephan McNally) to track down the gang and save the Territorial Mail Service. Steve must go undercover in a territorial prison, where after engineering a prison break, infiltrates the gang, and even finds time to romance dance-hall singer Mary (Alexis Smith), who proves to have hidden depths of her own.

Wyoming Mail is a fine example of 1950's American Western films, this one being directed by Reginald Le Borg and starring Stephen McNally and Alexis Smith. LeBorg is best known for a string of Universal Studio horror films like, THE MUMMY'S GHOST, JUNGLE WOMAN, CALLING DR. DEATH and DEAD MAN'S EYES. The cinematographer on this great looking duster was two-time Oscar nominated, one time winner, Russell Metty. Metty won his Oscar for his work on, SPARTACUS. A stellar cast is on hand to raise this above the usual B oater. Stphan McNally did not get to play the hero often, but he is perfectly cast here. His brooding, intimidating nature is exactly what this role called for. Alexis Smith is an attractive heroine who will keep your eyes glues to the screen. Her character has a life changing decision to make and it works well. An absolutely splendid support cast is on hand with plenty of familiar faces: villainous Howard Da Silva, the great character actor Ed Begley, Gene Evans who was Samuel Fuller's regular, the Mexican Armando Silvestre, Roy Roberts, Richard Jaeckel who had a long career, a curly-haired James Arness of Gunsmoke, the prolific secondary Whit Bissell, Frank Fenton, Woodrow Parfrey, and a brief appearance by Richard Egan who later on to become himself a big star. A brisk pace and plenty of action wrap this up in a nice, tidy package that will not disappoint fans of the Western genre!
