The DeAutremont brothers were looking for a big score. They brought
dynamite, guns and a getaway car. On October 11, 1923, at the
summit of the Siskiyou Mountains in southern Oregon, the three
young men held up a passenger train, with disastrous consequences.
Their rash actions resulted in the tragic deaths of three Southern
Pacific trainmen and one U.S. Mail clerk, unleashing a public
outcry that still rings through Oregon's history. In this riveting
account, rail historian Scott Mangold draws on interviews, in-depth
research and previously unpublished maps and photographs to
document the events at Tunnel 13. Join Mangold as he chronicles the
resulting four-year manhunt and eventual conviction of the
DeAutremonts and provides insight into the lives derailed by the
robbery's bitter legacy.
