Get on your horse and go to the Rhodes station. If you want to earn the gold medal, do not use the road suggested by the game, just take shortcuts and ride as fast as you can. Trelawny will follow you.
Hitch your horse at the hitching post and wait till Trelawny gets off his horse.
Follow Trelawny to the station. He will start talking to a station clerk named Alden.
After a short conversation, Trelawny will suggest that you give Alden some cash. Pay him and in return you will receive information about a stagecoach that's gonna carry something valuable.
Go back to your horses and follow Trelawny until you reach the place where the stagecoach should be passing.
While waiting for the coach to arrive, Trelawny will give you a lock breaker. With it you will be able to open the strongbox at the back of the stagecoach quietly.
When the coach arrives, follow it. Trelawny will drive up to the stage to talk to the passengers and try to make the stage stop, and you should tail the coach from a safe distance.
After a while, the stage will stop. If you stop your horse next to a white road sign, then you will be at a safe distance.
Get off your horse, crouch down and try to get as close to the stage as possible and don't get spotted. You may be noticed by one of the drivers who will get off the wagon and stand at the back of the coach for a while. If you get too close, you will be spotted and the shooting will start.
However, after some time he will go away and you will be able to approach the stage.
Break the strongbox and take its contents.
Once you've looted the stagecoach, retreat back to a safe distance. When you do this, Mrs. Damsen will return to the stage to continue the journey. While waiting for the coach to leave, try to get as close as you can to Trelawny. This will save you the precious seconds you need to earn the gold medal.
And as soon as the stagecoach sets off on its way, approach Trelawny. You will split the money, and the mission will end. You share will be $187.50.
Note: From now on, you can visit Alden or his friend Hector in Strawberry for information about coaches carrying valuable cargo.
