The story

In 1855, Edward Pierce, a member of London's high society, is secretly a master thief. He plans to steal a monthly shipment of gold from the London-to-Folkestone train that is meant as payment for British troops fighting in the Crimean War. Two heavy safes in the baggage car guard the gold, each of which has two locks, requiring a total of four keys.
