In the early hours of the 8th of August 1963, 16 masked men ambushed the Glasgow-Euston mail train at Sears Crossing in Buckinghamshire. Making off with a record haul of £2.6 million, twelve of the robbers were eventually jailed, but four were never brought to justice. Evading arrest and 30-year prison sentences, they lived out the rest of their lives in freedom. Now that these mystery figures, who managed to hide in plain sight for six decades, are dead, the truth about them and indeed about the Great Train Robbery itself can at last be told.
