Warmth by the Tracks

On a foggy blue night, a small brick railway hut glows orange as travellers huddle around a fire, waiting. Cold steel rails run into the mist in the foreground; sodium lamps flare like distant stars. A quiet, human story of waiting out the cold. Fun fact: Bangladesh Railway runs one of the densest networks in South Asia, and on winter nights these trackside fires — fed by whatever wood is at hand — become impromptu gathering points for passengers and railway workers alike.
