Tenterden Signal’s Murder!

Step aboard the Kent & East Sussex Railway for an unforgettable evening of intrigue, deception, and drama.

The year is 1953, a whistle, a scream, a body and the killer may be sitting just a few carriages away! The Tenterden Serious Crime Unit needs your help to untangle the web of lies and secrets before the murderer escapes down the line.

As the train steams through the Kent & East Sussex countryside, you and your fellow passengers will study evidence, question the suspects, and piece together the truth. Is it greed, jealousy, blackmail, or betrayal that drove someone to murder?

At journey’s end, you’ll cast your verdict. Will you uncover the real culprit… or let the killer walk free?
