Gotham Central Terminal

Gotham Central Terminal is a train station located in Gotham City. Gangster Duds Decker was handcuffed to a detective and taken on board a train bound for an upstate penitentiary. To try to stymie any escape plans, Batman and Robin boarded the train as aides to Wilson, a railway policeman. At one stop, as the threesome searched the cars for hobos, they come upon a trio of Decker's thugs disguised as transients and subdued them after a short battle.

Later, Batman uncovered a thug masquerading as a conductor. He gave the time as "two minutes after two," rather than a conductor's "2:10"--and subdued him.

Batman and Robin dismounted the train briefly to catch a lion escaped from a circus train, thanks to Decker's gang, and caught up with the train again to find it stopped. Wilson, who has been unconscious, revived to tell him he was jumped by Decker's men, who took their boss and the handcuffed detective along with them. Batman and Robin tracked down the gang in a railroad maintenance yard, and signaled Wilson with a special whistle used by trainmen, captured the crooks and saved the detective. They got the train back on course, waving to Wilson as he waved to them from the back platform of the caboose.
