Railway memories of old Mablethorpe
There was the level crossing in the High Street and the ‘Trip Trains’ used to arrive in the town on summer weekends from all over the Midlands.
All this came to an end when the line closed back in 1970.
But some of those memories will be revived at the town’s library this month.
