THIS CCTV image released today shows red light murder victim Anneli Alderton catching a train from Harwich to Colchester days before she was found dead in a wood in Nacton.
It represents a coup for the police who are in the process of scouring thousands of hours of footage.
The picture was captured at some point during the 5.53pm journey on December 3 and for the first time gives detectives a clear indication of what the 24-year-old from Colchester could have been wearing when she was killed.
None of the victims clothes have yet been recovered.
