In the afternoon of the 29th June 1964, 15 year old Yvonne Laker was travelling on a train from Southampton back to her boarding school in Maidstone. After being waved off by her Grandad she set off. Part way through the journey, Yvonne's body was found in the toilet in the compartment. Her throat had been cut with a glass bottle. The awful scene was hard to believe as is the fact that her murder is still unsolved.
