I like mull's answer.

I seem to remember a British Rail employee was always there to open and close the crossing gates.

Maybe there are two answers !!

Correct!  $good$
Built for the St Georges Harbour which was never built. The station would have been built where St Edward's Square is now.

In 1885, a Dr Vidcoo was performing in the Egyptian Hall of the Pier Pavilion. What was the nature of his act?

That's not it. To give a clue, he had an act of a similar nature to Professor Ferrari but on a smaller scale....  ;)

Good guess, Yorkie! Dr Vidcoo and his 'extraordinary performing fleas' were the act in question.  $good$

Is that a bit like Michael Bentine's Potty Time?

Where things moved about in sand, but you couldn't quite see anything causing it?
