Three of these men and another who joined the group later have never, to my knowledge, been wanted by the police in connection with the train robbery so, for their protection, I will refer to them as, Joe, Bert, Sid, and Fred.'\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRonnie Biggs\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIn the early hours of Thursday, 8 August 1963, sixteen masked men ambushed the Glasgow-Euston mail train at Sears Crossing in Buckinghamshire.\u003c\/b\u003e Making off with a record haul of  2.6 million, the robbers received approximately  150,000 each (over  2 million in today's money). While twelve of the robbers were jailed over the next five years, four were never brought to justice - they evaded arrest and thirty-year prison sentences, and lived out the rest of their lives in freedom. In stark contrast to the likes of Ronnie Biggs, Buster Edwards and Bruce Reynolds, they became neither household names nor tabloid celebrities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWho were these men?
