Synopsis for "The Great Train Robbery!"
Kid Colt rushes a train when a posse of lawmen are chasing after him. He makes it onto the train to Abilene and witnesses the train being robbed by Dakota Dillon and his Gang of Gunners. Colt steps in just as Dakota's man, Red, is about to throw a conductor off the train. Dakota threatens to pull the pin of the train causing it to roll back down the mountain and crash. Kid Colt outdraws all of the criminals and disarms them as well as preventing Dakota from pulling the pin. The train pulls into the station and the conductor lies for Kid Colt to the posse of lawmen stating that he jumped off hours back. The conductor didn't view it as a lie as the sheriff was looking for an outlaw and the conductor no longer believes that Kid Colt fits that description.

A fast drawing gunman seeks out Kid Colt to prove he's faster.

Deciding to face Zack, Kid waits in town for him to show up and to face him head on. The two begin their duel and while Krull is faster he only grazes with his first shot allowing Kid Colt to finish the duel in his favor. Kid Colt chalks the win up to Krull's lack of confidence, courage, and the faith of someone looking out for him from above.
