List of Hell on Wheels episodes

Hell on Wheels is an American dramatic television series created and produced by Joe and Tony Gayton. The series is broadcast in the United States and Canada on the cable channel AMC and premiered on November 6, 2011.[1] Set in the 1860s at the end of the United States Civil War, the series stars Anson Mount as Cullen Bohannon, a former Confederate soldier who is determined to exact revenge on the Union soldiers who murdered his wife. His quest for vengeance sends him westward to Nebraska's "Hell on Wheels", the lawless town that moves with the construction of the first transcontinental railroad. However, things get complicated when Cheyenne and Sioux tribes attack the construction of the railroad, determined to destroy the project because it is being built through their lands.

On November 7, 2014, AMC renewed the series for a fifth and final season of fourteen episodes. The final season will be split into two parts, with seven episodes to be aired in summer 2015 and summer 2016 respectively.[2]

As of November 22, 2014, 43 episodes of Hell on Wheels have aired, concluding the fourth season.
