00:00The song Crazy Train is based off this man.

00:02During the 1800s, a man named Moe D. Lawn worked as a train conductor

00:06and would travel across the country on the railroad.

00:09But during the late 1870s, unspeakable crimes started to occur

00:13where homes would be broken into and victims would be found hit by a sledgehammer.

00:18At the time, the police were not aware that this was actually happening all across the country.

00:23But in the year 1879, the Appleby family would randomly awake to a window in their home being broken.

00:28And when the father of the home went downstairs to investigate,

00:32he came back to face with a man holding a sledgehammer and would attempt to protect his family.

00:38Miraculously, he survived the attack and witnessed the man run out the back door

00:42and get onto a train that was connected to the railway behind his home.

00:46After the police were informed of this,

00:48they were able to figure out that the person causing these crimes was a train conductor.

00:53The police eventually would create a task force to try and catch him

00:57and would station officers at random homes along the railway system across the country.

01:03After a few months of doing this,

01:05he eventually broke into one of the stationed homes,

01:07but the officers were unable to arrest him on the spot.

01:10But eventually, officers were able to spot the train in transit

01:14and would chase him on horseback almost a full day trying to make him surrender.

01:19After hours of avoiding officers,

01:21Mo decided to change course and got onto closed tracks.

01:24After a few minutes,

01:27he came up to a bridge that was only halfway completed

01:29and before he could react,

01:31the train flew off the tracks and fell a few hundred feet below into the water.

01:35But when officers got down to the wreckage,

01:37Mo was nowhere to be found.
