In "Mystery of the Ghost Town Railroad," Scrooge McDuck faces off against a cunning rival in a forgotten mining town, where buried shares and a mysterious thief turn a routine land deal into a high-stakes chase. Written and illustrated by Carl Barks, this 1965 adventure blends classic Western intrigue with the signature charm of Duckburg’s most resourceful uncle, all rendered in the crisp, expressive style that defines his golden age work. The cover, also by Carl Barks, captures the dusty suspense of the tale with a striking, detailed scene that perfectly sets the mood.
