Commuter's Ticket

Originally Aired: August 1, 1946 In Suspense #204, “Commuter’s Ticket,” teletype repairman Bert Gavin (J. Carrol Naish) plans the perfect crime: kill his unfaithful wife during a passing train’s roar, then ride back into town unseen among thousands of daily commuters. But when the police close in, his carefully timed alibi collapses—every witness he counted on fails to remember him, and even the commuter’s ticket that could clear his name turns against him. A taut noir of anonymity and guilt, “Commuter’s Ticket” turns the everyday routine of a train ride into a nightmare of isolation and doom. Cast: J. Carrol Naish, Lurene Tuttle, Wally Maher, Ken Niles Tags: Suspense, thriller, noir, crime, JCarrolNaish, LureneTuttle, murder, alibi, guilt, anonymity, train, classicradio, oldtimeradio, 1940sradio, vintagehorror, suspensepodcast
