    I own a pistol that was used in an attempt to stop Rube from robbing the Christmas night express train at Duck Hill. In my research, helped getting started by man who knew his history and was a volunteer railroad historian for the old ICC Howard Bahr, who sent me copies from a book he had, there is a story about Rube being in Texas at a bar where another man also sitting at the bar pulled his pistol on Rube. Rube offered to buy the man a drink and when the man raised the glass, Rube pulled his gun and shot him dead.

    It's amazing to think that greed was there downfall.. necessity drove them to do wrong, greed got them caught. Also,about 9 minutes in, I'm not sure what song it was or who's playing it,but it is absolutely spot on perfectly timed with the motion of the train. All the music was good, but that was perfection. Well done.. standing ovation!! ❤
    I can't imagine the look one his mom and dad's face when his body came toppling off the train.. that was a bit much.

    Glad to see you do this story. Rube should definitely have more about him. The video has a few inaccuracies but the one I want to address is the rifle. The rifle in his coffin and that he loved so much was not from his childhood. It was a Marlin model 1888 in 38-40. I have seen this rifle personally and it’s still a beautiful rifle. The rifle itself was a somewhat rare rifle with only a few thousand made. Not sure where he picked it up at but he must have loved it. He was captured because he was walking in the rain with it and wanted to get it indoors. He went to the house of two black men so he could clean it and they jumped him capturing him. Then when he escaped the courtroom where he was chained to the floor he went back after the rifle instead of leaving, ultimately dying in the gunfight.

    If they had not become so greedy (and stopped after the first two trains), they may have gotten away with it for the rest of their lives. They were smart; but, not smart enough to stop. What became of Outlaw Red Rube's children? My favorite cookies are Ginger Snaps (with a hot cup of plain black tea). You are correct. This is the first time I have ever heard of Outlaw Red Rube.

    sadly a thing that has all but gone but you carry it on in a new chapter keeping stories and history alive in your way a good story teller of your proud self reliant people who trace there kin back to Scotland and Ireland
    and as a bye word i did my DNA ancestry and it said i was 96 percent Scottish and when i looked at where i had common ancestry you couldn't believe how proud i was when the only place in the America i had common ancestry was yes you guessed it Appalachia its all in the genes

    Good story. I’d never even heard of Rube before now. He was a brave one to keep on robbing those trains. Or maybe he was just hoping his luck would run out, kind of like a slow, drawn out death. I’m sure the loss of his wife fueled the outlaw side of him. A good looking young man. Sad story but really an ‘edge of your seat-what’s gonna happen next’ thriller. I couldn’t believe he kept on robbing the trains. Good one JD. You’re the master storyteller.

    The bond to a rifle is a powerful thing. I've had the one my daddy gave me for 50 years. Darn near my right arm through my younger years. Thankfully, God had and still has me by the other arm. He's a more powerful bond! Good story. God bless!

    • @TheAppalachianStoryteller
      @TheAppalachianStoryteller  6 місяців тому +3

      You got that right. I did my best to make a point of that bond throughout this story. Because like you my father gave me a rifle, right before he died. Yet, someone stole it when I was in my 30s, I put a 1000 dollar reward for it in the newspaper but I never saw it again.

    I grew up on land that my great grandmother bought from Rube. We are from the same hometown. As a kid my grandmother took me to see his grave and told me the story of Rube. She also took me to the local newspaper which sold a book on him. That started my love for “Wild West” history except this was in Alabama and he was my very own Billy The Kid figure.

He was in his 90s at the time. He brought in a shoe box and inside the shoe box was all the original Rube Burrow photos. Anyone you’ve seen online or in books he had the original tintypes in that box. It was pretty amazing to see and hold the originals. I am somewhat unique because our family land once belonged to Rube and I am related to Rube through marriage and also related to Moses Graves, the post master whom he killed.
