 Maybe... they find a briefcase with a top secret report they need to deliver and people keep trying to stop them? And some spy gadgets, money, passport.
+Each carriage compartment has a suspect, or a person of interest. Every day they have to investigate that person. Each one is part of a conspiracy that builds up to...?
+So think of it like Cluedo. There are a set of categories. Each one they need to solve. Each one has a person on the train to investigate. Could be video'd interviews even? That person has evidence that can answer one of the categories. They might not solve them all. But at the end they're asked to give their answer to the secret intelligence service agent in Istanbul. Then they have to give their answer, but they might not know whether it's the right one.
+So what might the categories be?
+  * What are the secrets about?
+  * Who is trying to obtain them? (could be many - competition between different countries' secret services and they need to find out which?)
+  * Where is the British agent?
+Think John Buchan.
+So, every day they arrive at a station and receive a package directing them from the station master that's been telegraphed from London. It has the passenger details, maybe a photo, and a carriage to investigate.
+Each day it's a carriage, dining car, lounge, etc.. They find things in that carriage.
+Cluedo, so things they know about the incident (time, handedness) then eliminate the suspects by finding out that they have an alibi.
