The Reckless Reno Gang

Jump to the AD-FREE Safe House Edition

Episode 92 takes place after the Civil War, when the Reno Brothers explored a new way to rob trains that inspired the James and Younger gangs. But even the wild and wily Reno brothers were no match for Allen Pinkerton and his detectives. Although it takes place in Indiana, this story has the trappings of a tale of the Old West: Daring robberies, fugitives from justice, clever arrests, and a final showdown in the New Albany jail. Adapted from "The Pinkertons: A Detective Dynasty" by Richard Wilmer Rowan
