7/10
A very good and gripping show.

The railway men is a really good and gripping show. What I liked the most is the tense and suspenseful atmosphere that the show managed to create throughout its runtime. Even though we know how things unfolded, the director did a really good job of not loosening the stress for bathos. The characters are well developed, their motivations are clear, and we do see them grow as the episode progresses. The actors also do justice to their characters. The camerawork, sound design, set and lighting seems near perfect. This brings even more immersion into an already interesting storyline.

Even though I liked the overall show, there seems to be a lack of completion in the story, especially the aftermath of the tragedy. I think it would have been better for the show if it would have shown more grievances of the victims, and shed some more light on the culprits responsible for this tragedy. Instead, that was completely omitted out, showing only few scenes that the reporter witnessed. Hopefully, Netflix does a documentary style movie of the same.
