Strange postscript to this, My Grandad was the Keeper! not long after this took place he took the ten elephants for a walk over to the field, on the way back he used the trackside phone & was given the all clear to cross the line. The circus elephants were trunk holding tails as circus elephants do, 9 of them crossed the line but a fast train came a bit early & killed the last elephant stone dead. The circus sued the railway for all ten elephants..........
Because when the last one was killed it ripped the asses out of the other nine!
