Between the Gleisen is a German crime film by Werner Röwekamp from 1975. The television film was released as the 35th episode in the film series Polizeiruf 110 .

In addition to the lead investigating German People's Police - around the staff of Lieutenant Huebner, Sergeant Subras works undercover - the transport police ("Put the stuff back or I'll go to the Trapo.") And the volunteers of the People's Police ("I have the other VP -Helper already notified. ") Mentioned in the strip. Of these, however, only Losansky is clearly assigned to an acting person, and he does not wear a VP helper armband.

action

40 new Glashütte watches in their original packaging are found in a garbage dump. Lieutenant Jürgen Huebner and Sergeant Lutz Subras learn that the clocks have disappeared during the rail transport. The investigations show that freight wagons are repeatedly relieved of parts of their freight that pass the Hornstein freight yard, so when asked by the companies, shoes and cassette recorders were stolen from the freight boxes. Jürgen Hübner and Lutz Subras assume that the perpetrator can be found among the employees of the station. Lutz Subras now investigates incognito on site: He pretends to be interested in a job at the freight yard and tries to establish contacts in the company premises.

Manfred Petzold, who was released after several years of military service and is now back to work as a shunter, is being celebrated in the bar on his first visit. Manfred is in love with the waitress Susanne, but his father, who also works at the train station, has bigger plans for him: Manfred should study. Paul Petzold also thinks a waitress is below Manfred's level. Manfred realizes that his father has changed in his absence. Not only did he marry Inge, a woman 25 years his junior. Since Inge has allegedly inherited, he has also bought a dilapidated house for the family, which he is building and expanding himself.

One day Werner Peto caught his colleague Günter Wustmann, called Spinner, when he was stealing watches from a wagon. Spinner had previously received a tip by phone that high-quality goods were being transported in the special wagon. Werner is horrified, but receives a stolen radio from Spinner so that he does not reveal anything. Peto goes to the police and is used by Jürgen Huebner as an informant. The investigators want to catch crank in the act. They also need the man behind who knows about the freight. During the interrogation, Thea Muck, the manager of the waybills, could only say that practically everyone can have access to the letters.

Manfred visits his father to build a house. He tells him that he had caught Spinner stealing, but he had warned him that if he reported him, he would also report his father, who was also involved in the theft. Paul is horrified and indignant about the suspicion. A little later, however, Manfred catches him rummaging through Thea Muck's freight papers and giving the number of the valuable wagon to Spinner by phone. Paul admits to Manfred that he bought the house with the money he had stolen. The police arrest Paul before he can warn nuts. At the same time, Jürgen Hübner receives news from Werner Peto that Spinner and his accomplices are planning a large theft that night. The investigators are on site and can finally put spinner and the watch stealer Dieter Schaffrath in the act. Paul's wife Inge Petzold was arrested again in Schwerin when she tried to sell a radio that had previously been stolen.
