Coming up on this week’s episode, it’s time for a listener request. Long time listener, Joseph, has asked me to look at the Great Train Robbery of August 8 1963. Robberies and heists are great learning opportunities for risk practitioners. Not because I want you all to go out and steal, don’t get me wrong. They are great learning opportunities because they exemplify the balance needed in good risk management: the balance between defending against threat but also chasing opportunity.
In this week’s episode, I’ll explore how fifteen men stole an astronomical 2.6 million pounds from a Royal Mail train travelling from Glasgow in Scotland to London, England. And how they all very nearly, got away with it.
Just as an interesting historical aside. The son of gang member, Bruce Reynolds, Nick, would go on to become a musician, forming a band, Alabama 3, who penned the song ‘Woke Up This Morning’. A song that would become the opening theme song of long running drama, The Sopranos.
