Wells Fargo is a 1937 American historical western film directed by Frank Lloyd and starring Joel McCrea, Bob Burns and Frances Dee.

In the early 1840s, Wells & Fargo employee Ramsay MacKay comes upon a broken-down carriage in the countryside and gives belle Justine Pryor and her mother a lift into Buffalo, New York, though he warns them he is in a hurry to make a delivery of fresh oysters.

The ladies endure a very bumpy ride, and he arrives in time to enable his employer, Henry Wells, to impress some bankers with the speed of his service.

When Dan expresses his longing for his sweetheart back East, MacKay recommends Wells Fargo's new shipping venture.

When MacKay and Dan meet the ship in San Francisco in 1851, passenger Henry Wells has a surprise for his star employee: Justine has come too (though only with the blessing of her father).

MacKay, chosen to lead the wagon train, meets with President Lincoln, who emphasizes to him how crucial this shipment is.

When MacKay refuses Justine's plea to shirk his duty, she overhears the secret route he will take and writes it down.

Many years later, when MacKay goes east for dinner in his honor, he has an unexpected visitor afterward: his now teenage daughter Alice.
