What angered Hughie even more was that Billy Butcher produced a set of documents: police records from the day Hughie's girlfriend had been killed in the collision, which he had gone to great lengths to obtain.
They clearly showed that there had been no so-called bank robbery at all.
That meant The Train had been in such a hurry not because he was carrying out a mission, but because he had some other unspeakable reason.
