Outlaw Robbery Plot Against Soapy Stone Falters in Train Hold Up
A jail break by Blackwell leads to a railroad holdup plan by Soapy Stone and his gang near Tin Cup. Curly Cullison disguises as Sam and seizes control of the express car, but Curly’s group counters as the Circle C posse closes in. The showdown ends with arrests and retreats as the plan unravels, bloodless yet dramatic, with a cliffhanger ending.
