註釋This the true story of Willis Newton and his outlaw gang who robbed trains and over seventy banks—more than Jessie James, the Daltons, and all of the rest of the Old West outlaws—combined. Their biggest haul occurred in 1924 when they robbed a train outside of Rondout, Illinois—getting away with $3,000,000. They still hold the record for the biggest train robbery in U.S. history. G.R. Williamson interviewed Willis Newton a few months before the outlaw died in 1979 at age 90, then using transcripts from his interviews, first-hand accounts from eye witnesses, newspaper articles, police records, and trial proceedings - Williamson tells the true story of The Great $3,000,000 Train Robbery.
