-- The show starred Roy Rogers as a ranch owner, Dale Evans as the proprietress of the Eureka Café and Hotel in fictional Mineral City, and Pat Brady as Roy's sidekick and Dale's cook. Brady's jeep Nellybelle at times had a mind of her own and sped away driverless with Brady in frantic pursuit on foot. Earlier, during the show's 1952 episodes, the jeep was called Nellybelle. Animal stars were Roy's Palomino horse Trigger and his German Shepherd Bullet, the
Wonder Dog.The series featured traditional cowboys and cowgirls riding horses and carrying six-shooters in a contemporary setting where they coexisted with automobiles, telephones, and electric lighting. Source
