Ep 268 - The Great Locomotive Chase Pt 1


Season 1 Episode 268


In 1862, 23 Ohio soldiers, led by a Kentucky union spy, stole deep into the south with the intent of stealing a train and using it to destroy telegraph lines, railroad tracks and bridges and cripple the south. They ultimately got caught and nearly half of them hanged, but the survivors were given the very first Medals of Honor by a grateful US Congress. In this first episode, we meet the intrepid Ohioans and follow them on their dangerous four-day trek as they part with their regiment in Tennessee and slink into Georgia for their secret mission.
