Description
Signal Red by Rob Ryan In 1963, a daring heist took place in Buckinghamshire, with an unarmed gang led by Bruce Reynolds holding up a Royal Mail train and making off with millions. The group's audacity sparked outrage and pressure for quick arrests, as Scotland Yard launched a massive investigation to track down the robbers. As the police closed in, the gang's nervous middlemen began dumping large quantities of money in forests and phone boxes, leaving behind a trail that Scotland Yard was determined to follow. With each new discovery, the authorities moved closer to catching the culprits, but the gang remained one step ahead. This gripping true story is based on the real-life events of the Great Train Robbery, which became one of the most infamous heists in British history.
