Tamworth NSW Australia

Don't you fellas speak English there lol. Sorry about that, I forget that some of our phrases aren't universal.

The phrase "Bail up!" was used by bushrangers in Australia, it was commonly used instead of 'Stick Em Up! or 'Stand and Deliver!' when they held up a stagecoach

Bushrangers, or bush rangers, originally referred to runaway convicts in the early years of the British settlement of Australia who had the survival skills necessary to use the Australian bush as a refuge to hide from the authorities. The term "bushranger" then evolved to refer to those who abandoned social rights and privileges to take up "robbery under arms" as a way of life, using the bush as their base.[2] These bushrangers were roughly analogous to British "highwaymen" and outlaws of the American Old West, and their crimes often included robbing small-town banks or coach services.

And a track is a trail or path through the bush.
