Episode 5- The Mullingar Station Murder- 1869

from Murder under Gaslight · host Don Mortell

Send us Fan MailIn the early hours of a spring morning in 1869, Mullingar Station was almost silent. Almost.Because somewhere between the shadows of the platform and the dim glow of the signal lamps, a man lay dying.His name was Thomas Anketell— on duty the night he was struck down. The violence was swift, the motive unclear, and the killer vanished into the darkness before anyone could raise an alarm.What followed was a tangle of suspicion, fear, and one of the most unsettling investigations in the history of the Midland Great Western Railway.
