In 1864, the railway was the pinnacle of modern, safe travel. That perception was shattered one July evening when 69-year-old banker Thomas Briggs was found brutally murdered after a short journey on London's North London Railway. The crime, motivated by the theft of a simple pocket watch, sparked a national panic and a sensational investigation that would make history.
Join us as we unravel the story of the first murder on a British train. We'll follow the meticulous Scotland Yard detectives as they piece together the clues left behind in a blood-stained carriage, including a single hat that would lead them to their suspect: a German tailor named Franz Müller. But their man had already fled, setting the stage for an unprecedented transatlantic chase that pitted a slow sailing ship against a fast steam liner and the revolutionary power of the telegraph. This is the story of a landmark case that transformed policing and captured the attention of the world.
