The Great Train Robbery

The Great Train Robbery has to be one of the most famous heists in the world. The burglars lured a money-laden train into stopping at a fake signal, and subsequently looted $74 million. The highlight of this heist was that no guns were used during the heist! Few robbers were caught, but the elusive Ronnie Biggs was eventually captured in Brazil and he later gained fame as a pop culture icon.
