Hell on Wheels è una serie televisiva statunitense western sulla costruzione della First Transcontinental Railroad negli Stati Uniti. La serie, interpretata da Anson Mount, Colm Meaney, Common e Dominique McElligott, raccontava la storia della Union Pacific Railroad e dei suoi operai, mercenari, prostitute, geometri ed altri che vivevano, lavoravano e morivano nell'accampamento mobile, chiamato "Hell on Wheels", che seguiva la ferrovia a ovest attraverso le Grandi Pianure. In particolare, la storia si concentra su Cullen Bohannon (Mount), un ex soldato confederato che, mentre lavorava come caposquadra ed ingegner capo della ferrovia, inizialmente cercò di rintracciare i soldati dell'Unione che uccisero sua moglie e suo figlio durante la guerra civile americana. Creata da Tony e Joe Gayton, trasmessa per cinque stagioni dal 2011 al 2016 sul canale via cavo AMC. Il titolo Hell on Wheels (letteralmente "inferno su ruote") fa riferimento all'assieme itinerante di case da gioco, saloon e case di tolleranza che seguiva gli operai dediti alla costruzione della Prima Ferrovia Transcontinentale nella seconda metà degli anni '60 del XIX secolo negli Stati Uniti d'America.
