<spoiler>The culprit is '''Takashi Date'''. The victim was blackmailing the doctor on incidents of malpractice and so was silenced. The decisive evidence of his guilt was that he robbed the victim including a substantial amount of coins to give the impression of indiscriminate robbery. To keep the impression that he was on the same train the victim was in the entire time he bought a drink using one of those coins. The possibility of fingerprints was brought up but none were found suggesting Date wiped them off. However, that included those of the stewardess which proves his involvement in the crime.</spoiler>

<spoiler>The culprit is '''Takashi Date'''.

He used a series of tricks to kill the victim and maintain a alibi. When the train stopped at Mizunokawa Station, he got off and disguised himself by putting on a mustache and hat as well as turning his reversible jacket inside out. Then he got on the train where Utsumi was. He was able to delay the train via phone call claiming to be a passenger who forgot his belongings on the train. He then sat down across from Utsumi and after talking he ambushed and injected him with a syringe full of medicine that induced a heart attack.

He robbed the victim including a substantial amount of coins to give the impression of an indiscriminate robbery. However this itself was strange as there was a better target: a rich woman who was wearing expensive jewelry and most likely had a large amount of money as well.
 +
 
 +
The possibility of fingerprints on the money was brought up, but Date claimed that Utsumi had lent him money so finding his fingerprints wouldn't mean anything. However Conan as Kogoro says that was not what he meant when he mentioned fingerprints. He meant that the coins had fingerprints from the Stewardess. Utsumi had bought a drink from the stewardess with a 10,000 yen bill, however she did not have 1,000 yen bills so she gave him his change in coins.
 +
 
 +
So should any of the stewardess's fingerprints be found on the those coins, that will prove that Date was on the train with Utsumi. Faced with the overwhelming evidence he breaks down and confesses his guilt, revealing his motive to be that the rumors about him receiving kickbacks from pharmaceutical companies were indeed true and that Utsumi had found out and blackmailed him for it. Date agreed to buy the negatives but believed Utsumi secretly had more. He did not want to be blackmailed for the rest of his life so he decided to kill him.</spoiler>
