A Scotland Yard superintendent investigates a series of robberies
This crime film involves some railway scenes that include a night journey sequence filmed on the Western Region. The train arrives at ‘Birmingham’ and both Jack Hawkins and John Stratton leave the train to make a phone call. This was in fact Windsor & Eton Central, and there are some early daytime shots filmed here also. Finally, there is a good daytime shot of a BR Standard Class 7MT ‘Britannia’ 4-6-2 bringing an express down Camden Bank on its way into London Euston, and an indistinct shot of a steam locomotive passing Royal Festival Hall at night.
