What is their definition of “full of guns?”

150 guns does does not make a freight car “full.”

1500 guns would be arguable as a “a large shipment in a freight car.”

15,000 guns would be “A freight car FULL OF GUNS.”

150 guns?!?! That’s barely a pallet.

I was thinking the same thing. A few crates on a single pallet, at best. When the freight company takes charge of a shipment, they are technically responsible for it until it makes it to the addressee. This is Butch & Sundance stuff, robbing trains, and the railroads better get with it.

Probably doesn't make the getaway car full. I believe there may have been 150 guns stolen, but I suspect the story of exaggeration. I also wasn't aware that small quanities of firearms were shipped by train. Maybe the post office uses it
