A Topper & A Beaver: Thomas Briggs & Franz Muller
from Dark Histories · host Ben Cutmore
All aboard, we're going back to the Victorian era to shed some light on the first ever murder on a train in Britain at a time when people were already terrified on this crazy new technology. It's not all high speed steam trains though, we've even got a super slow-mo police chase across the Atlantic!
