Once Upon a Texas Train (AKA Texas Guns) is 1988 made-for-TV movie directed by Burt Kennedy and starring Willie Nelson as John Henry Lee and Richard Widmark as Captain Oren Hayes.
The movie opens with the Texas Train being robbed. However, a group of Texas Rangers stop the robbery. 20 years later the head of the outlaw gang, John Henry, is released on good behaviour, but the minute he gets out he and his brother Charlie (Dub Taylor) rob a bank. Captain Oren Hayes, the Texas Ranger who arrested John (and later ensured his release) goes after him once more knowing that he'll try to pull off the robbery he bungled up 20 years before. As John gathers his old gang to help him Hayes does the same. Meanwhile a group of young outlaws led by the Cotton (Shaun Cassidy) have their own plans for the gold the elderly outlaws have already stolen.
