- 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 behavior, but the minute he gets out he and his brother Charlie 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 have their own plans for the gold the elderly outlaws have already stolen. Kennedy utilized several aging western stars from years past as the group of aged Rangers as well as the outlaw gang. With former "Rifleman" Chuck Connors as Nash Crawford, past "Cimarron Strip" marshal Stuart Whitman as Gentleman George Asque and former "Dakotas" deputy Jack Elam as Jason Fitch making up the retired rangers. While John Henry's aged gang consisted of former "Gunsmoke" deputy Ken Curtis as Kelly Sutton and western character actors Royal Dano as Nitro Jones, Gene Evans as Fargo Parker and Dub Taylor as John Henry's brother Charlie Lee. While Angie Dickinson appeared as the woman once torn between John Henry and Oren Hayes, but who had married Oren after John Henry had been sent off to prison. Note: The Texas Rangers characters originally appeared some 20 years before in the unsold television pilots The Over-the-Hill Gang and The Over-the-Hill Gang Rides Again starring Walter Brennan as Nash Crawford, Pat O'Brien as Captain Oren Hayes, Chill Wills as Gentleman George Asque and Edgar Buchanan as Jason Fitch. Elam had the distinction of appearing as the crooked sheriff in the first "Over-The-Hill" film and then assuming the role once played by Edgar Buchanan two decades later in "Texas Train".
