=== History ===
The Nightstreet Gang robs a train that [[Wax]], [[Wayne]], [[Steris]], [[Marasi]], and [[MeLaan]] are riding to [[New Seran]]. The attack takes place on the train line before the town of [[Ironstand]].{{book ref|mb6|9}} The motive of this robbery is mainly financial: the target of the heist is the bank car present on the train.{{book ref|mb6|7}} However, the gang was actually hired by [[Kelesina Shores]] to attack the train in order to distract Wax from his mission.{{book ref|mb6|15}} [[Edwarn Ladrian]] was the mastermind behind this plan. {{book ref|mb6|16}}
 
WhileThe the gang's primary job - to distract [[Wax]] from his mission - was masterminded by [[Edwarn Ladrian]], [[Kelesina Shores]] was actually responsible for hiring them for the attack.{{book ref|mb6|15}}{{book ref|mb6|16}} Despite this,Gang they appearappears to be unaware of the details of their mission. First, they attack the entire train, not just waxWax's car.{{book ref|mb6|7}} Second, they were surprised at Wax's presence on the train, given their lack of anti-allomancer battle tactics.{{book ref|mb6|9}} Additionally, they are inexperienced at robbing trains, according to Wax. Instead of forcing the train to stop in order to board, they attack on horseback.{{book ref|mb6|7}}
 
The gang's resources are substantial. They use a chemical weapon in order to remove resistance from the train's bank car, and are equipped with what appear to be gas masks in order to protect themselves.{{book ref|mb6|7}} Additionally, they employ at least one metalborn: a [[Coinshot]] takes part in the heist, breaking into the armored train car and fighting Wax directly.{{book ref|mb6|7}} Despite all of this, they do not wear masks to protect their identities, another clue that they were hired by someone.{{book ref|mb6|7}}
 
The gang is assisted directly by [[Set]] member [[Irich]], who provides them with [[Ettmetal#Mechanical Uses|Primer Cubes]].{{book ref|mb6|7}} In order to escape the train safely, the Gang throws Irich off the train into a river directly next to the tracks.{{book ref|mb6|8}}
 
The Gang is left decimated by this attack. Despite successfully escaping with their ill-gotten gains, [[Matieu|Constable Matieu]] claims that half of the attackers were killed or captured by Wax.{{book ref|mb6|9}}
