John Cole visits Ireland's ecclesiastical capital, the Ulster city of Armagh - and discovers what lessons were learned from the catastrophic rail disaster of 1889.

Down Your Way was one of the 麻豆社's longest-running radio series - starting on the 麻豆社 Home Service in 1946 and ending its run on 麻豆社 Radio 4 in 1992. Using a variety of hosts, including Richard Dimbleby and Brian Johnston, the programme toured villages, towns and cities across the UK. At the height of its success in the 1950s, the series was attracting 10 million listeners a week.
