Spectator recites ruse on Galveston train ticket thefts
A famed conductor recalls a bold scam on a Dallas to Galveston journey. Two Kansas City men, out of work, swapped as a couple to gain a single Galveston ticket via a willing young woman. The pair used the ruse to move toward Texas, while other travelers watched their uneasy behavior and a broker supplied the only Galveston option. The tale ends with the conspirators evading detection by fitting as husband and wife and boarding toward their goal.
