    Sherlock Holmes' creator travelled to Cannock, in 1906, in a train hauled by a SE&CR 'P' Class that wasn't built until 1910 (although it's clearly labelled 'LNWR', so maybe it was secondhand to the South Eastern? Or did Wainwright moonlight?).
    Having eliminated the impossible, am left with the implausible: a very large dog had eaten Conan-Doyle's Bradshaw's...

    Well, no doubt in a few years they'll be able to do all these scenes in the studio with CGI and get all the historical details correct.
