The great train robbery?

After hearing all this stuff about a train gold robbery, I checked my records and found nothing for 1861. The only movement by train of a gold shipment happened in 1864 when the treasury of Georgia was robbed while being moved.
1861 was the year the mint closed in Georgia.
