Default memory

I used to travel to my grans in Amble from Shilbottle every Friday on the 9pm Ords bus ,I would always hope the gates at the Warkworth crossing would be closed,the driver (Maurice?) would not be pleased if they were!!I loved the wait and hearing the train approach and go roaring through,steam then in the fifties!!Also remember the station in Amble where each year Roberts circus would arrive and the elephants were led of to parade to the circus ground.
