Examine the rail switch and the Mines | Riddle On The Rails SH: Crimes and Punishments Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

Examine the rail switch (the red arrow on the right, below the sign). Read the inscription on the signpost on the left, near the road to the woods. Activate Holmes's imagination. Use the map to reach the Mines.

Walk a bit forwards and notice the Fallen sign on your left. It is an Information board (examine it). Pick up the Board from the ground and attach it in the right place, between the two other boards. Wipe the dirt off the boards. Holmes will be able to read the information: WEA Coal Company.

Now, examine the Vehicle traces on the road (to the right of the board). In the close-up mode, measure the distance between them and examine them. Also check the Wooden beam on the right. Walk towards the Mines until the Holmes's talent icon appears. Activate it and take a look at the Screws on the ground.

Climb the embankment on the left and head towards the wooden huts. Enter the one on your left. Notice that there is a Metal box lying on the floor, in the left corner. It's a small safe and you have to use a lockpick to open it.

Opening the Metal box in the hut near the Mines

Rotate cylinder nr 1 so that the two windows are moved a little upwards (the left one is slightly bigger than the right one).

Switch (1 click) to nr 2. Rotate it to match the lines in the right window to those on nr 1.

Switch (1 click) to nr 3. Match the lines in the right window with those on nr 1.

Rotate the two remaining cylinders downwards (simultaneously) so that you can see two windows (left one is smaller than the right one).

Switch to nr 4 and match the lines in the left window with those on nr 1. The window on the right is ready.

Switch to nr 5 and match the short horizontal line with the rest of them on nr 1, 2, 3 and 4.

After opening the safe, take New security instructions from it.

Leave the hut and head to the collapsed entrance to the Mines. Activate Sherlock's talent. Notice a Paper package lying in the rocks. Approach it and examine the Strange package in the close-up mode. Examine the box and pull aside the Paper cover. Take a look at the Sawdust.

As Watson, shoot at the package, aiming a little below it.

Deduction

Connect "Mines were blasted" with "Mines are collapsed". Two Conclusions will appear that rule out each other: "Concealment" and "Sabotage".

Use the map to move to Evesham.
