Özet
 Two trains Side by side for a brief moment In that moment, a murder

Elspeth McGillicuddy is positive she witnessed a man strangling a woman to death.

But it was only the merest glimpse through a carriage window as the trains drew parallel.

She is the only witness, there are no suspects, and, most importantly, there is no corpse.

Who, apart from her friend Jane Marple, would take her seriously?

I was already very familiar with the story but as with all audible books the narrator is a key element. Emilia brings the book to life beautifully and is a joy to listen to.

A great listening experience

The story was highly entertaining, though I thought that Emilia Fox, an actress I usually admire, was not quite up to the job

Usual enjoyable Christie

Wonderful but I found the sound quality a bit cracklely. The narration was otherwise excellent

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

No problem recommending this one. Well read. The different voice characterisations are well done. I have been 'hopping' between reading the book, listening to it on the exercise bike and watching the DVD version. The audio by far beats the rest.

What was one of the most memorable moments of 4.50 from Paddington?

Mrs McGillicudy's witnessing of the murder. Fleeting but intense.

What about Emilia Fox’s performance did you like?

The different characterisations are well delivered. Emily so easily moves from old Mr Crackenthorpe to Lucy Eyellesbarrow.

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

At times very funny with all of the 'proposals' of marriage. And quite outrageous the way some of the characters flippantly deal with murder.

Any additional comments?

I am always amazed how 'little' Miss Marple actually appears in the storyline.

Classic tale, a classic listening experience

Enjoyed this very much. One or two of the voices not that good but rest was green.

Good story
