The Great Train Robbery: What Went Wrong?

This week we take a dive into The Great Train Robbery.

As we worked our way through this story it became clear that there we so many tails, rumors and theories. We have done our best to take sources from various documentaries that have either used the criminals involved or the police involved from the time.

Usual notices:
1. We are not historians. We enjoy researching and learning, and with that we enjoy sharing our journeys with you.
2. Errors. Whilst we make every attempt to not include any errors, research, and piecing stories together from dozens of sources sometimes leads to one or two. I will note here if any are found:
