There are several versions of the movie and then there is the book it is based on "The Wheel Spins" by Ethel Lina White.
The most popular and the stick by which all others are measured is the Alfred Hitchcock version The Lady Vanishes (1938) (The Criterion Collection).
This rendition has quite a few TV actors of the time playing the various characters. One you will recognize right off is Selina Cadell. She plays Miss Froy. She has (102 credits) to her name.
This (2013) version was adjusted to be politically correct so you cannot "fast forward" as the clues and conclusion are different. The politics of the time are not mentioned but the flu is.
One may be put off by the main character being a snot. However, that is necessary to show how she reforms in adversity.
The basic story is of course a lady traveling on a train vanishes. When our heroine inquires as to her whereabouts everyone denies that the lady ever existed.
