Ronald Christopher "Buster" Edwards (27 January 1931 – 28 November 1994) was a British criminal who was a member of the gang that committed the Great Train Robbery. He had also been a boxer and nightclub owner. ==Early and private life== Edwards was born in Lambeth, the son of a barman. He worked in a sausage factory after leaving school, where he began his criminal career by stealing meat to sell on the post-war black market. During his National Service in the RAF, he was detained for stealing cigarettes. When he returned to south London, he ran a drinking club and became a professional criminal.〔Richard Hobbs, 'Edwards, Ronald Christopher () (1931–1994)', Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, Sept 2004 (accessed 21 Sept 2010 )〕 He married June Rose in 1952. They had a daughter, Nicky. He was involved in the theft of £62,000 from Comet House, the headquarters of British Overseas Airways Corporation at Heathrow Airport, in 1962. Many of the gang were captured, but Edwards escaped arrest. Many from the same gang would go on to undertake the Great Train Robbery in August 1963.
