He also deduces that one of the people on the train is his nemesis, Colonel Sebestain Moran. Afterwards, Holmes is nearly killed after he is pushed off the train by an unknown person. A train guard is then killed and another is knocked out by Moran's henchman, Sands, who is double-crossed into getting the diamond and killed (with a poison dart, which is what killed Roland) by Bleek who is really Colonel Moran. Holmes and the gang attacks them, and the police come, ready to arrest Moran and Vivian (who was also involved because she brought Sands in the coffin). Just then, all of the lights turn off. Watson turns them back on, and when he does, Moran is captured by the police with his coat over his head. Outside, the "Moran" is revealed to be Lestrade, who arrests the false police who were going to make a getaway with Moran. The real Moran will be arrested soon, and Holmes pulls out the diamond and shows it to Moran.
