Ben Kilpatrick was one of the most prolific train robbers of the Old West.

He was described as being 6 feet, 2 inches tall, which led to the nickname “The Tall Texan.” He was light-complected with pale yellow eyes, each of which had a violet spot in it. Along the way, he developed excellent shooting skills and was considered “absolutely fearless.”
He and his other cowboy friends soon concluded there was an easier way to make money and formed the Ketchum Gang, which robbed trains in New Mexico. However, after a failed train robbery, he fled to the Robbers’ Roost in Utah and joined what became known as the Wild Bunch in 1898.
Along with leader Butch Cassidy, the gang included the Sundance Kid, Harvey Logan, George Curry, William Carver, Elza Lay, and Bob Meeks. While with the Wild Bunch, Ben also hooked up with Laura Bullion, who had previously been Will Carver’s girl. The gang began the most successful train robbing career in history.
