It's April 1944, as passengers are waiting to board the 7.00pm Express from Loughborough, eminent Austrian professor, Friedrich Kildorf is shot in the back. The murderer must have boarded the train! But whodunit?
Was it his gold-digging wife, Pearl? His brain box assistant, Heidi Heibrau? Local pickpocket policeman, P.C. Poppet? Or the xenophobic RAF Officer, Wing Commander Rupert Greatrex-Spence?
And just how many skeletons does Station
Master Will Gerrit have in his closet?
You must work out ‘whodunit’ before 10.45pm, when the train returns
to Loughborough, or the murderer will escape justice.
Served aboard our 7:30 pm departure from Loughborough selected Fridays. Please arrive at Loughborough for 7:00pm
