Subscribe FreeDuring the Depression "Boxcar Bertha" (Hershey) was queen of the gun toters, a fun-loving love 'em and leave 'em type girl. However, after meeting union man Big Bill Shelly (Carradine), her heart was lost forever. The lovers and their gang made a name for themselves robbing trains, and their antics grew from small time thefts to much bolder robberies. But all good things must come to an end, and Bertha realized all too late that she was not as invincible as she had thought, and life wasn't as easy as she had imagined. Based on characters contained in "Sister Of The Road"
