Love this book. I've always enjoyed train movies, and this is my favourite train book. Non stop action! Like the other reviewer said, the main character is no saint, with a less than savoury past, but you are cheering for him at the end, because there is much worse than him around - especially on this train.A recomended read if you run across it second hand.
Highlights the grey scale between right/wrong, good/evil.

The hero is no saint! Yet his motives and methods make him a role model (not that I recommend robbing a train!) I read this book when it first came out and have read it several times since. I have kept it through four moves and expect it will stay on my shelf for some time.
The best book money can buy!!!!

This is my favorite book!!!! If you had to pick 1 book to read, pick this. A book you can't put down. "You feel the same as the train, racing down the track at 79 mph"
