Wider view[edit]

Train robbery is not limited to 19thC America the few links to other wiki articles shows this. 1995 Palo Verde derailment is a possible train robbery. An internet search show news-worthy 21stC robberies in India. This shouldn't be written in the past tense. --JBellis 13:11, 6 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

List of famous robbers[edit]

I propose that if we have to have this, it should be in a separate article, without the red links. Are all of these real people or are some fictional? --JBellis 13:11, 6 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Modern train robbers[edit]

If you google for "india train robbers" you will see that countries like India still has train robbers. It would be nice to have this infor in the article (See the article on piracy for comparison). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.150.116.86 (talk) 08:20, 16 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

A cycle has become apparent[edit]

If you look through the revision history on this page you will see a cycle of vandals adding names from Red Dead Redemption 2 and users removing those names. Temporary article protection may fix this issue. Tommy has a great username (talk) 14:43, 7 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Recent train robberies[edit]

Hardy Boys 2023 Vancouver Christmas Train?[edit]

Someone added to the list of Most Notable Train Robbers and there appears to be no other source or mention. I searched google and came up with nothing. I could be completely wrong here but the title of "The Hardy Boys" raises a red flag with me especially since its dated for Christmas 2023 and in "Vancouver". Such a region experiencing a train robbery would likely result in expansive news coverage. 106.73.14.64 (talk) 09:54, 5 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Just wanted to add that the closest thing I could find was an early-2023 report of a train robbery in Kamloops. 106.73.14.64 (talk) 09:56, 5 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
