โœฆ Synopsis

Murder and robbery committed on the railways have long held a special place in British criminal history. Railways and trains create special conditions โ€“ and opportunities โ€“ for criminal acts. Two legendary large-scale robberies took place on the British railways โ€“ the Great Bullion Robbery of 1855 and the Great Train Robbery of 1963 โ€“ and these extraordinary episodes are often used as examples of the ultimate in criminal audacity.
