From a Railway Carriage

'The stations went by in the wink of an eye'  refers to the disappearance of the railway stations in a flash as the train speeded by.

Explanation:

  • From a Railway Carriage is a very popular children's poem by Robert Louis Stevenson.
  • The poet writes the poem through the point of view of a young child.
  • The poem is written in a rhythm  that echoes the rhythm of a speeding train.
  • The little boy is mesmerised by the scenes he views from the window of his railway carriage.
  • As the train speeds by all the objects seen from the window disappears in a flash.
  • Big stations pass within a fraction of a second.
  • This speeding away of the stations is compared to the 'wink of an eye'.
  • Just as things may disappear within a wink of the speed of disappearance is very swift so do the stations that go fleeting by.
