Recordist's notes

The Mechelen station. In first, a walk in the tunnel, with announcements about a train blocked in Vilvoorde. After on the platforms, a train leaving to Binche, a lot of boy scouts shouting ! At the end, a train leaving to Antwerpen, and suddenly, a big quiet silence on the platforms.

Written by Vincent Duseigne on radio aporee ::: maps.
