find the murderer
and you'll find
the diamond.
How do we know the thief
didn't leave the carriage
before we
discovered the body?
The attendant was in the
corridor the entire time
and he's certain
that no one passed
into the dining car.
The door at the other end
leads into the
luggage van.
Which is always locked.
kind on the body Watson?
No, none of any
significance.
Not even a scratch?
Well there was a small
spot of blood on his neck,
just a mere speck.
That's what I
was referring to.
You mean that
scratch killed him?
It's possible the poison
that went into
the wound did.
Poison?
We can't tell that
without an autopsy.
Have you got a list
of passengers in
this carriage?
Yes sir.
There you are sir.
Thank you.
Major Duncan Bleek
that would be your
friend Doctor.
The next
compartments empty.
Where we took Lady
Margaret after the murder.
You remember Lestrade.
Go on.
Vivian Vedder, Inspector
Les... that's this one.
Lady Margaret Carstairs
and the honorable
Roland Carstairs,
Professor
William Kilbane,
Mr. & Mrs.
Alfred Shawcross,
Mr. Holmes and
Doctor Watson.
That would be you two.
a few questions.
Vivian Vedder, we'll
start with her,
whoever she is.
Vedder
Compartment 'C.'
Oh, here we are.
Empty.
Say Holmes
are you going
to let Lestrade
handle this thing
by himself?
Well after all
he does represent the
official police you know.
With him doing
the questioning,
looking under the seat
cushions for diamonds,
what very more
must we do now?
I could do it
better myself.
Why don't you old fellow?
Huh?
By Jove I think I will.
Probably find
out just as much
I'll do it at once.
That's where I
just came from.
Locked Hmm.
Well I'll start
with this one.
Yes?
My name's Watson,
Doctor Watson.
Oh to what am I indebted
to this intrusion?
I'm afraid I've
got to ask you
one or two questions
what are you doing
on the train?
Where you are going?
Things like that you know?
Why?
Customary.
There's been a
murder committed.
Scotland Yard,
Sherlock Holmes,
Sherlock Holmes and I...
What about
Sherlock Holmes?
We're cross-examining
suspects.
Suspects?
Of what am I suspected?
Fellows dead.
Murdered you know?
Now let me get
this straight.
You say a murder has been
committed on this train?
Next compartment.
And because a perfect
stranger to me
got himself murdered
you come
to question me?
Well we got to
question everybody.
Are you a policeman?
No.
Then by what right
do you force your way
into my compartment?
Well I...
What are you doing
on this train?
Where are you going?
