Where the track lost its bridge

“The trail is dusty
And my road it might be rough
But the better roads are waiting
And boys it ain’t far off”

(Bob Dylan in Paths of victory)

I’m the light that’s guiding you!

“Sail on!” it says, “sail on, ye stately ships!
And with your floating bridge the ocean span;
Be mine to guard this light from all eclipse,
Be yours to bring man nearer unto man!”

(H.W. Longfellow in The lighthouse)
Vlaardingen (NL)

Where a railroad bridge finds its end

“Ain’t talkin’, just walkin’
I’ll burn that bridge before you can cross
Heart burnin’, still yearnin’
They’ll be no mercy for you once you’ve lost“

(Bob Dylan in Aint’t Talkin’)
Liège (B)

NedTrain: no news, we are permanently closed!

And he was told but these few words
Which opened up his heart
“If ye cannot bring good news, then don’t bring any”

(Bob Dylan in The wicked messenger)

Les Avins en Condroz

“When I left my home and family
I was no more than a boy
In the company of strangers
In the quiet of the railway station
Running scared, laying low
Seeking out the poorer quarters
Where the ragged people go
Looking for the places only they would know.”

(Bob Dylan in The boxer)
Les Avins (B)
