La Grande Caravane
In 1959, the 22-year-old Alberghetti played the lead in "The Conchita Vasquez Story" of NBC's "Wagon Train". She was cast as part of a gang of Comancheros who intend to attack the wagon train to steal rifles headed to the United States Army. Instead, she decides to leave the Comancheros and move west after she falls in love with scout Flint McCullough, played by Robert Horton. Tragically, as the episode ends, Conchita is killed by a bullet from her own people when they ambush the wagon train.
