An original Australian Daybill poster for the 1975 release of “Breakheart Pass”

An American western film that stars Charles Bronson, Ben Johnson, Richard Crenna and Jill Ireland. Based on the 1974 novel of the same title by Scottish author Alistair MacLean (1922 - 1987), it was filmed in north-central Idaho. 

When diphtheria breaks out at Fort Humboldt, a train is dispatched with medical supplies and relief troops. Also on board are Utah's governor (Richard Crenna), his mistress (Jill Ireland), a marshal (Ben Johnson) and his prisoner, outlaw John Deakin (Charles Bronson).

As the train passes through the mountains, soldiers go missing, telegraph lines are cut and it's discovered that there is no epidemic. There's a conspiracy afoot, and it's up to Deakin, actually a federal agent, to expose it.

"Death rode the rails to Breakheart Pass."
