Near site of former station at Amble, 1991
The open space is near, but unfortunately not quite where, the terminus of the ex-NER branch from Chevington was situated. Actually, tracks passed the station to reach the Docks. Regular passenger services ceased from 7/7/30, but excursions came until 1939, while coal traffic to the staithes kept the branch in operation until 6/10/69.

Coal truck used on the staithes
Amble grew in the nineteenth century as collieries were opened; and the newly built railway links to the Northumberland coalfields made the town a centre for the sea transport and export of coal.
The arrival of the railway lead to the construction of coal staithes.
This is an example of the trucks used on the staithes to load coal into ships.
