I think someone at AMC had a meeting with the writers and reminded them that the show is supposed to be about the building of the first transcontinental railroad in the U.S., so they've used the last few episodes to end some of the storylines in order to have the series end with the Central Pacific and Union Pacific meeting at Promontory Summit. I think the second half of Season Five has been pretty lackluster compared to the rest of the series, and I'm guessing the final episode will be somewhat anticlimactic.Hell on Wheels. What was that? Filler. Meeting contractual obligations. Like Lou Reed's Metal Machine Music (without the smart aspect).
