The train ‘London, Huron and Bruce”,
An iron monster — look!
A roar bursts from its fiery lips
At every road and brook.
"Hurrah", the settler shouts “Hurrah,
For it we’ve waited many-a-day."
The morning train awoke the town,
And on it went supreme,
With mail and goods and busy folk;
The student in .his dream.
It was indeed a real event;
Life settled then content, content.
At dear old Clinton it would come
And wander round the town;
Londesboro too it viewed afar,
And gave to Blyth renown;
Belgrave away beyond, the hill,
Could never miss its daily 'thrill.
’Midst such enjoyment men grew
And youth made plans so high.
It had its right-of-way just as
The sun blazed through the sky.
The station, tickets, strangers, too,
A wider world there stood in view.
What! What’s the news to-day?
Our iron friend, farewell?
The rusty rails to be a path
For ghosts their shrouds to swell?
The bus, a train can never be
And through the day we’ll sigh for/
