Synopsis:
A train known as the Brotherhood Express containing treasures from several countries is scheduled to pass through Gotham City. Batman suspects that the train will be robbed and discovers that many of the treasures have been replaced with fakes. When evidence shows that the crime was committed by tiny people, he calls the Atom for assistance.

The train was robbed by the Cannoneer, a circus performer who has blackmailed the midget girl Lilli De La Pooche into helping him. Batman tracks down a circus train containing the real treasures and battles the Cannoneer while the Atom duels the miniature girl. Both heroes prevail and the treasures are recovered.
