    A memorial service will be held to remember the victims of one of the first - and worst - rail disasters in the UK.

    Thirty three people died on August 20, 1868, when the Irish Mail train ploughed into six runaway trucks at Llanddulas, near Abergele.

    Most of the bodies were so badly they burned they could not be identified.
