The Last Train Robber
Did You Know America’s Last Train Robber Lived Out His Years in Spartanburg, SC?
He never meant to rob a moving train—or get caught in a shootout just blocks from the White House. But it really happened.
Climb aboard with author Wilson Casey to hear the firsthand account of the last moving train robbery in American history. In Bedlam on the W. Virginia Rails, Casey shares the incredible true story of Luman “Lu” Ramsdell, as told by the train robber himself. Dubbed “The B&O Zoot Suit Bandits” by the national press, Lu and his gang became infamous for their violent 1949 heist.
Lunch and Learn is sponsored by the Chapman Cultural Center
There are a limited number of seats, be sure to register in advance (even members!)
Admission: $5 for non-members / Free for SCHA members.
Don’t forget to bring your lunch!

Did you miss our first Awe Walk on Sunday, August 4? Our next walk will be Sunday September 7th from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m. and we will continue to meet on the first Sunday of each month for the following two months (last day is November 2 – don’t forget to turn your clocks back the night before!). The walks will begin at the Garden Entry at Hatcher Garden, located beside the Jess Taylor Pavilion, and will move about the garden to experience the feeling of awe in nature.
Each month, we’ll explore one of the five key processes associated with the experience of awe, which support overall well-being:
-
Shifts in neurophysiology
-
A diminished focus on the self
-
Increased prosocial behavior and relational connection
-
Greater sense of social integration
-
A heightened sense of meaning
Led by Executive Director Dan Shook and his wife and yoga instructor Kristin Shook, each walk will offer time for reflection, connection with nature, and insights into how the Garden supports these powerful emotional and psychological benefits.
Come walk with us—and discover the wonder.
