AMC is letting its Western drama Hell on Wheels ride off into the sunset for good this summer, and now we know when. The series will continue its fifth and final season starting Saturday, June 11 at 9pm, when the first of seven episodes left airs.

That will be followed at 10pm by the limited series The American West, which looks at the open West from 1865 to 1890 and tells tales of famous lawmen and gunslingers Jesse James, Wyatt Earp, Billy the Kid and more. Dramatizations will be intercut with interviews of people from classic Westerns, who offer their take on the genre and the time it depicted. The American West will run for eight episodes and is produced by Robert Redford.

Here's a look at both shows:
