This programme was created by Benjamin Belinska and Elodie A. Roy. It is a journey along the Cathcart Circle, one of the oldest train lines in Glasgow (first opened in 1886). The programme combines field recordings of the train line and a poem. It was mainly recorded in February 2015. The collage entwines the memory of a half-fictional journey with the living memory of the Cathcart Circle line.

Belinska & Roy have collaborated on several projects before, including fanzines, music and film. Belinska is a freelance composer and Roy is a writer and researcher. They both live in Glasgow.
