THE LOST SPECIAL
12 CHAPTER SERIAL
1932

PLOT:
Loosely based on Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's short story. A special train carrying gold bullion from the Golconda Mine is stopped by henchmen working secretly for Sam Slater, part owner or the mine. Laying down portable tracks, the bandits take the train off of the main line, hide it in an abandoned mine shaft, steal the gold, and pick up their make-shift tracks, leaving a mystery in their wake. Mine owner Potter's son Tom Hood, just home from college, determines to solve the mystery with the aid of his pal Bob Collins. They board the gold-shipment special train on its next run...
