Arizona only sentenced one man to hang for train robbery and that is the story in “Up Goes Your Hands.”
The guys were a small-time trio of outlaws who would have made Al Jennings of Oklahoma look like Jesse James. This gang is a classic example of why prospective train robbers should enroll in a Train Robbery 101 course at their local community college before undertaking such an endeavor. They would have learned such things as: Always wear a mask to conceal your identity; if you have sores all over your face, wear a hood; don’t consume alcohol before pulling a job; and if you have a foreign accent, let one of the other outlaws do all the talking.
