Somebody robbed the Glendale Train
This morning at half past nine
Somebody robbed the Glendale Train
I swear I ain't lying
They made clean off with 16 G's
Left 2 men lying cold
Somebody robbed the Glendale Train & they made of with the gold

Would this be closer than the Danville Train, which is usually related to Hoboing & Jesse James is tied to the Glendale Train & more of a Bluegrass song but I can't give you any more than this, though I'm sure others will jump in here for you. Good Luck. Barry

Glendale Train is a New Riders of the Purple Sage song, that othergroup of Jerry Garcia's. Let me know if that's the words you want, I think I can transcribe them. (if the album still plays that track).
Blessings,
Barbara

Thanks to all for your help. Once I started searching for "Glendale" rather than "Danville", I was able to get the lyrics.

Thanks bunches- you guys are great (and fast)
