Adieu to Burke and that trailing cappa magna

Pope Francis has removed Cardinal Raymond Burke from the Congregation for Bishops.

There is a picture of the said cardinal on a visit to Ireland wearing his 'trailing cappa magna' surrounded by a group of people. They all look like something shaken out of an encyclical.

Before the modernisation of the railway 'trailing points' were fashionable.
