Her father is the station agent at Koko, an important post, as there are many shipments of gold that are all the time coming through. One day they receive word that there is a big shipment coming. On the train that is bringing the geld is "Nitro Ned" and his gang, who plan to get the money. They see the bank messenger and are about to grab the coin when he gets off at Koko. The crooks follow. The first thing that Nod does is to "get in soft" with the daughter of the master. The station master is very well pleased, as he does not like Jimmie. Jimmie is bounced and the new man takes his place. The crook now proceeds to get the combination of the safe by means of a looking glass. Finally they decide to rob the safe, but Jimmie is on the job and holds them up with a gun. Then they lock the boy in the safe and plan to take the whole thing. The express freight is coming through that morning, so they plant a lot of dynamite so as to blow the safe into one of the vacant cars. The time fuse goes off at the right time and the safe is blown into the car. They proceed to side-track the car and finally separate it from the rest of the train. But they fail to take everything into account. Soon the car is running wild and they are powerless to stop it. It gets to a town and goes through the streets, much to the astonishment of the natives. But the car cannot be stopped. It dashes over a cliff in a whirlwind finish. Jimmie has just enough strength left to climb out of the ruins and capture the crooks and so gains the girl whom he loves.
