Well, that's the way I see it, fool-proof.

Well?

Sensational. Can't miss.
The best idea you ever had.

- Few points, Ronnie.
- There's only one point, Phil.

This is the biggest job yet.

We can retire for life when it's done.

Sure, but it's gotta be done right.

Robbing the mails?
We can retire for life, all right.

Hey you, how many jobs
have we done together?

- SiX.
- How many times have we been caught?

Don't get over-confident.

I'm only getting one thing,
and that's tired of jewellery,

fur, stuff like that. We take
it to a fence, what do we get?

A crummy 10 percent.

But this stuff pays up in full, cash.

Biggest load of cash you ever saw.

There's nothing wrong
with the objective, Ronnie.

And there's nothing wrong with a plan.
Listen, the first Tuesday of every month,

the banks up there
send half a million pounds

down to London by registered mail.

That's a million
and a half dollars for destruction.

Oh, it's too dirty
for the public to handle.

But it's plenty clean
enough for us. Can't you see?

Until this stuff goes into
the mincer, it's still money.

Yeah, you've already said that.

So I have to say anything twice
to get it across.

- All you have to do is say yes.
- I say yes, but--

Listen, Phil...
I've taken this trip eight times.

- It's easy.
- Sure, it's easy.

You've checked everything,
but you've made it all too complex.

I've taken this trip eight times
with a stopwatch and a map.

I know how it should go.

Listen, Ronnie. Listen to Phil.

I'm listening, aren't I?

All right.
First of all, we bring our own labels

for the just-married business.

Don't rely on the guard giving them to us.

But he's got 'em.
It looks more natural that way.

Once in 10 years,
he forgets 'em. It happens.

- Next point?
- I'm still on the same point.

It's not for me to talk to the guard.

Mr Husband must take care of that himself.

He's right, you know. And another thing...

..You certainly don't
want the guard to know

that Phil has got anything
to do with you and the girl.

Why doesn't Phil travel
as an ordinary passenger?

OK. So you're both a couple of geniuses.

Anything else?
- Second, the moustache.

What about it?

Well, disguise is really for the experts.

Either it looks exactly right,
or it looks phoney.

Too obvious,
everything that we want to avoid.

Changing clothes is
all the disguise you need.

- The getaway is so fast, but--
- But what?

Don't change until after the job is done.

But why wait so long?

The strength of the plan
wedding bells is also its weakness.

Strong, because it gets
you into the exact carriage you want.

Weak on account of it lets the guard

get a good look at you by invitation.

Now, suppose
the guard comes into the carriage--

- He won't.
- It's possible.

Then he sees you looking different,
so he starts thinking, doesn't he?

I guess you're right.

OK, so you change after
the tickets have been collected.

That all?

Third, and the most
important one of all...

..Are you sure that we can get

from one carriage
to the other that easily?

Checked. We can get the tags
out of the upholstery with a nail file.

Underneath in each corner,
there's a big bolt.

- Going all the way through?
- Checked, right through.

OK Ronnie, it's a great setup,
but I still wanna check it myself.

How many times do
I have to tell you I've checked it?

OK, mastermind. Now what?

Look, as soon as
you get aboard that train,

I want you to make me out a full report.

Then when I give you a signal,
pass it to me through the door.

OK, OK.

You got anything else to say?

All right, tomorrow's Tuesday.

- Your wedding day?
- Right.

- Aren't you short of a bride?
- We'll talk about that over coffee.

[UPBEAT MUSIC]

Jackie.

Three cappuccino, one salad.

- We take our little trip tomorrow.
- Yes.

Moustache, you can do without, Ronnie.

But the clothes-changing routine, never.

Look Ronnie, I don't think I like the idea

of a girl on a job like this.

I thought you wanted to retire, Phil?

It sounds like he's retired already.

Oh, OK.

I know it's OK.

How are you gonna like being my wife?

I love you too, sweetheart.

Until this deal goes through, it'll keep.

Here...

..You'd better get used to wearing this.

A wedding ring, huh?

- Just in case you forgot, Ronnie.
- That fits pretty good.

Where'd you get it, Phil?

Oh, someone gave it to me a long time ago.

Gave it back, you mean.

TANNOY: The train now
standing at number four platform

is the overnight express for London only.

London only.

The train now standing at platform four...

[PLAYFUL MUSIC]

Pardon me, lady.
This carriage is reserved.

I'm sure you'll understand.

Calmer than that, Ronnie.
You've gotta sway the guard yet.

What is it, Sir?
Just married? Now, isn't that nice?

Nobody seeing you off?

No, no way. We're all alone.

- Nobody'll disturb you.
- Not even for breakfast?

All right, Sir. I'll see to that.

You're a real pal. Cupid with a whistle.

I shan't forget you two.
Today's my 20th wedding anniversary.

Well, they all say
the first 20 years are the worst.

Yeah.

Hear that? Phil was wrong.

I should have worn that moustache.

Time, time, we're all dominated by time.

Charlie!

Charlie, get down.

- Charlie.
- Charlie, do as your father says.

Charlie, you'll fall and hurt yourself.

[DOORS SLAMMING]

Do they have to make such
a racket shutting the doors around here?

The place is like a bowling alley.

24 hours from now,
you can buy your own railroad.

And have the door shut any way you want.

Now, take it easy.

Oh, you're so calm.

Try it.

A long way to go yet.

[WHISTLE BLOWING]

[WHISTLE BLOWING]

[TRAIN CHUGGING]

Should've worn that moustache.

Can you figure me listening to Phil?

You told me yourself,
without Phil, this job's sunk.

I changed my mind.

You're crazy, you can't cross him.

I'm crazy to cut him in
in the first place.

This is my party.
I only need you and Gibbsy.

- How come I invited Phil?
-'Cause he's got the experience.

You said it.

Mason Cole, this was a one time job.

We're gonna make history.
We don't need experience.

We're creating it.
Not without Phil.

We can be on the move
without him realising.

You might, I won't.

Personal reason?

So Phil was wrong about the disguise.

OK. He'll be right when it counts.

- You know that.
- I guess so.

I just wanted to show him
we could do it without him.

We get it. We can't, though.

One thing I can't forget.

I need you.

That'll keep.

Right now, you report for Phil.

[WHISTLE BLOWING]

Thank you.

[TRAIN RUMBLING]

Charlie darling, you'll hurt yourself.

Charlie, be careful.

Now, you could go to sleep on the seat.

- Wouldn't that be nice?
- No.

Can't reach it.

Well, it's not for little boys.

Who is it for?

Well, never mind, sit down.

- I wanna go for a walk.
- You can't go for a walk on a train.

Wouldn't you like to go to
sleep and wake up in London?

No, I wanna go for a walk.

Ow!

Now, just you say
you're sorry to the gentleman.

Well, all right then.

Just till the end of this coach,
and don't touch any doors.

You might fall out.

I'm terribly sorry.
He's so high-spirited, you know.

Encourage it. Yes, independence.

- Excellent.
- I can quite agree with you.

[WHISTLE BLOWING]

It's different.

What do you mean different?
How can it be different?

You said all railroad coaches were alike.

Doesn't look so good.

The whole frame rests on the corners.

I'm sure of it.

These rivets are just...

Just discovered after eight journeys.

Knock it off.

Took imagination
to figure out this scheme.

It's gonna take more than
that to get us through there--

Shut up!

You mind if I go back
to me seat and my wife?

You've got the wrong carriage.
Can't you read? Now go on, beat it.

Just married.

- Oh, you poor--
- Listen, buster!

Leave me alone with my wife
and you go back to yours, all right?

- Better idea, let's swap.
- Please, go away.

Oh, go on, please. Let me kiss the bride.

I wanna kiss the bride.

Listen buster, for the last time, beat it.

- Good. Give me a drink.
- I haven't got a drink.

What a wedding.

Haven't you any Scotch
tucked away from the reception?

No. Now, go away.

I'm looking for a drink and a stranger,

- now which way to go?
- Try both.

OK. I know when I'm not wanted.

Daddy, whole street's on fire.

Now Charlie, you really
must try not to tell stories.

I saw it from a window.

Flames, fire engines,
people jumping from the window.

Now, Charlie darling,
you oughtn't to fib like that.

It isn't a fib, I saw it.

Now Charlie, don't leave this coach.
There's a good boy.

He's always making things up.

I sometimes think he's got the making--

Encourage it.

You've been talking
to the restaurant people.

You told them not to serve me, didn't you?

No.

- You're a liar.
- Please.

Try to get to sleep.

You'll see.

When you get to London,
this new clinic, the cure--

Cure, she says.

How can I face a cure without a drink?

It's late, what's keeping him?

Let me.

I'm not nervous.

- You were supposed to--
- A note's no good.

- I gotta see for myself.
- It's your idea.

- Well, it's a bad one, just the same.
- We all have them occasionally.

Help yourself, genius.

"Just married."

You've seen for yourself.

Are we rich?

Rivets.

Enlighten me more.

Hardwood partition.

Solid all the way down.

Sounds like an inch thick, maybe more.

Can you strip it off?

I don't know.

Expert.

Look, you show me a syphon,
I know what I'm at.

I never tore a railroad coach
apart before. Nobody has.

How's it feel to be a pioneer?

Not so good, huh?

- You all right, Phil?
- Sure, he's all right.

I asked Phil.

You heard right the first time.

Way I see it, if you've got a pain there,

at least it shows you have guts.

How about proving it?

What's the pitch?

We advance the schedule.
We strip this now.

Find out what we have to do,
then we do it.

Maybe now, maybe later.
Depends on what you find.

Strip it now?
That's taking an awful chance.

We're taking a chance
every minute we spend

in this lousy locomotive.

Now, what's the odds?

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

Evens.

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

With my compliments, Sir.

I'd have brought it sooner,
I have so much to do.

Thanks a lot. Didn't need to bother.

Well, today is my anniversary.
I did tell you, didn't I?

Yeah, you told me.

Well, there it is.

I don't know much about champagne,

but the dining car staff
say it's the best.

It's very kind of you. Thanks a million.

I bet by the time this train gets in,

there'll be a white ribbon around it.

FunneL

- What have you got in your coat?
- Keep checking the seat, Phil.

A gun?

Nobody gets in the way of this job.

- You don't need any gun.
- Come on Phil, we're wasting time.

- Keep checking, huh?
- Just a minute.

Suppose that guard had
walked in with half the wall down?

Suppose somebody else does?

Jackie's right, Ronnie.
And so is your timing.

The closer we are
to Gibbs before we start,

the less risk there is of
any accidents like that one.

You scared?

You think so?

Then do the job yourself.

- Count me out.
- Come on, Phil. I was only kidding.

Look, we're too close to
the money to give up now.

OK.

In the meantime,
why don't you throw that gun away?

So long, Phil.

Make sure you're back here on time.

- He's sick.
- Yeah, in the head.

Can't you tell? It's written all over him.

You're dreaming.

Look, we're gonna get
through there to that money.

We gotta.

Dad...

..Why do people who are
just married pull their blinds down?

Don't you know?

Now, for the cure.

No vices at all.

Oh, marvellous.

I mean it.

Excuse me.

What's that?

I've been wondering
whether to stop the train.

Who are you?

Somebody who's been watching you.

lwouldn't do it if I were you.

Do what?

Light that cigarette.

- Look ma'am, I don't understand.
- I do.

You've got an ulcer, haven't you?

- Are you a doctor?
- I used to be a nurse, once.

Now, I don't want to scare you,
but my guess is it's perforated.

You should be in hospital.

- Yes, I'm on my way there now.
- I'm very relieved to hear it.

Now, please take my advice.
Don't smoke anymore, rest.

If anything happens, I'll stop the train

and get you to the nearest hospital.
You just relax.

[WHISTLE BLOWING]

- Hungry?
- Yeah.

- Kind of.
- Ask for boiled fish.

OK.

Iwill.

And nothing else, mind.

I'll remember.

Thanks.

Why don't you take it out in the corridor
and let everybody have a look at it?

Don't you know Phil's gonna
open that door in a minute? Sit down.

All right, all right.

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

You're minutes late. What kept you?

Spanner.

- Take hold of yourself.
- He's sick, I told you.

Sick, my eye. Just nerves.
Just plain nerves.

From a great expert, too. Come on.

Look Ronnie, don't ride me.

We can still make it.

This is your last chance.
Get with it, or I'll do it myself.

Phil.

You, for crying out loud? Leave him alone.

It's OK. I'm all right.

Satisfied, Florence Nightingale?

All right, all right. Now the other one.

This week.

Hold me steady, will ya?

- Here, give me that.
- No.

- Are you all right now?
- Yeah, OK.

Ulcers.

Lousy, stinking ulcer.

Now it has to break loose.

Phil, can't we do anything for you?

Yeah, sure.

Tell the restaurant car,

one of the two guys in the bridal suite

would like some boiled fish.

Go talk to 'em.
He needs all the bit he's got.

Ulcer?

That's painful.

Ouch!

Thank you.

- Is he annoying you?
- He's so high-spirited.

Let's go.

- Ronnie, I don't think this is gonna work.
- Try it.

These rivets are nothing, I'm sure of it.

It's the screws
that hold the seat back, you'll see.

Come on, Phil boy. We're losing time.

OK. I will see.

Keep trying. You can beat it.

This coach is 1,000 years old.
Look at all the rest. It'll give.

- Maybe the other end first.
- Neither end, kid.

These rivets are the babies.
The others are just...

Come on, you son of a...

..Halfa million.

Half a million lost
because of the lousy rivets.

No, not quite.

Phil boy, do we stand a chance?

You have to do something now.
We can never pull this gag again.

We're way behind schedule.
How aboutjust listening to Phil?

OK. We've tried it your way,
and it was no-go.

My way is gonna take time,

but we can't leave this place
the way we found it.

So we commit the crime of half a century.

Take over.

- 50l50.
- Do you think I'm bargaining?

Let's go!

OK, start tearing
the springs out of the back.

Ronnie, you'd better tie up that door.

And what's all this about?

When you do a job for the first time,

you've gotta be prepared for anything.

- Connect this up for me.
- You wanna make a hell of a racket?

We're not gonna get any breakfast,

but they say
that music is the food of love.

- What about the voltage?
- It's not the same.

Look, don't try
and teach me my job, will ya?

- I got a converter here.
- OK.

Hey, turn up that radio.

Good and loud.

[UPBEAT MUSIC]

OK, switch it on, will you?

[DRILL BUZZING]

Oh boy, it's never
been as bad as this before.

Keep going, Phil. Just keep going, huh?

- How are we for time?
- It's fine if you keep going.

[DRILL BUZZING]

[FOOTSTEPS RUNNING]

- [UPBEAT MUSIC]
- [DRILL BUZZING]

You're doing great, Phil.
You're almost there.

Not there yet. Boy, this is burning me up.

It's only a few more holes. Let me do it.

OK. Remember, don't hold it too tight.

Yeah, I know.
I've been watching an expert.

Look after him, Jackie.

You should never have come on this job.

I know.

Supposed to go to hospital this week,

but how can
you give up a job like this one?

You'll have the best treatment
South America can offer.

That's the idea exactly.

One last big job.

A decent payoff, get myself better,

take it easy for the rest of my life.

You will.

[DRILL BUZZING]

Get the saw from the case.

Look, these three holes I started.
They're close together.

- Start sawing there.
- That'll take time.

- Isn't there some other way?
- There's no other way.

[OWL SCREECHING]

Hold it in there.
I'll get you the other saw.

That's better.

Thanks.

Look, I've got to face this myself.

Leave me alone.

Go and get an early breakfast.

[GENTLE MUSIC]

Wait. Wait a minute. Don't do that.

We're not sure what's behind there.

- The knife, the knife.
- Jackie, give me the knife.

It was there on the seat somewhere.

It's your job to pass the tools.
What's the matter with you?

I'm sorry.

[DRAMATIC MUSIC]

[FABRIC TEARING]

Wait a minute. Wait a minute.

- Jackie can make it.
- OK.

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

Who is it? What do you want?

Sorry to disturb you.

Can I see you for a moment?

Just a second.

It's you again.
You caused enough trouble last time.

Go on, beat it.

That's it, I want to apologise
to you and your wife.

Give you a present, maybe.

Yeah, well I got a present for you.

Anybody else comes in here, I'll kill him.

So you're subtle.

Good thing for him you've
got time to be subtle. I haven't.

Come on, fast.
We're close to the bridge already.

Start putting them in the sacks.

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

Who is it?

Could I have some lemonade too, please?

- What?
- Lemonade, like the man just got.

Go away. You've got the wrong carriage.

I haven't, I saw. I want some.

- Ronnie, it's only a kid.
- Go away.

I want some lemonade.

It was only a kid.

- Did he see--
- He didn't see anything.

He couldn't have.

Kids, drunks.

It's like a weekend excursion.

Dad, dad, now I know
why they pulled the blinds down.

- Dad, listen.
- No, no, no, shut up.

My trousers, they're soaked, ruined.

Listen, I saw them.
They gave the man a bottle.

I've had just about enough of you. There.

- Now then--
- Leave the poor child alone.

Why won't you believe me?

Because you're always telling stories.

Now, shut up!

If I was a story,
I didn't see that, but I did see this.

I saw they were--

Now, be quiet or you'll get some more.

Tickets, please.

I want to go somewhere.

Yeah, all right.

But don't get into any more trouble.

Tickets, please.

- Please.
- What is it, son?

- I've been thinking, it's a robbery.
- Robbery?

Won't you believe me? They're robbers.

You come along and tell me all about it.

[WHISTLE BLOWING]

The bridge. We're too late to deliver.

What do we do now?

Take it with us.

How?

We ditch everything else,
and pack it in the cases.

OK.

What about Gibbsy?

Well, if... If we can contact him
before we reach the airfield, OK.

If not, we send him a registered envelope.

Yeah.

[DISTANT WHISTLE BLOWING]

We'll make it yet.

Take it easy, Phil boy.

You rest up awhile.

We'll do the rest.

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

Who is it? What do you want?

The guard, Sir.
Did you enjoy your champagne?

Yeah. Yeah, fine. Thanks.

Good.

Your tickets, please.

Just a minute. We're not quite...

All right, through here.

Sorry, Phil boy,
you'll have to help us now.

And fast.

Here, Jackie.

Let's get this place cleaned up.

Well, that's great.
Everything's out of the way.

Yeah?

What about that gun?

You're right, Phil boy.
All the way down the line.

No more trouble from that kid.

You know, it's too bad
we're going into retirement.

I might listen to you a little more often.

Thanks.

Better get back, hand in my ticket.

Can't take a chance
of staying here any longer.

I'll never make it.

What's one more chance among so many?

Relax.

Come on, Jackie. We'd better get changed.

OK. Unzip me, will you?

There's a good boy.

You won't tell any more stories, will ya?

No, dad. Only what I see.

Oh, there's a good boy.

Here we are.

So one hour from now,
we'll be on that plane.

There's your cure, Phil boy.
So from now on, you can relax.

I'm gonna buy some stockings, first thing.

These ones are shot.

Thanks for the loan of it, Phil.

Keep it.

Souvenir.

We've made it. We're all right.

I can feel it.

- Knew it all the time.
- It had to go right.

It has.
