On a siding in the Glotzbourg station stood a private car, which had been placed at the service of the Grand Duchess, waiting to be connected with the Paris express from Berlin. Inside, the Duchess, dressed in a quiet traveling costume, sat talking to Prince Gudulfin. The young man was pale and anxious: "Your orders have been carried out, Madame, are you satisfied?"
It must be peculiarly irritating to the South to see a man of his position siding with those vulgar agitators. Really, unless something effectual can be done to stop that frenzy, I fear Southern gentlemen will be unable to recover a fugitive slave." Flora looked at Mrs. Delano with a furtive, sideway glance, and a half-smile on her lips.
And, as he went, there was for the thing that checked his progress something more than anger for the thing that forced him to go slowly there was patience. Standing on the rear platform, as his train moved slowly away past an incoming train that had just pulled onto a siding, the man saw the neighbor who lived next door to his old home drive hurriedly up.
There's those three trucks on the A siding to go to Slopsbury by the 6.30 luggage she'll be in in another five minutes." There were steps as if some persons were coming out of a cabin opposite they came nearer and nearer: "These three, ain't it, Tommy?" said a gruff voice, close to Paul's ear. "That's it, mate," said another, evidently Tommy's "get 'em along up to the points there.
Siding with Burns, as we needs must, in his plea against the world, let us try to do the world a little justice too.

The sharpest conflict is said to have been against the Thebans, the chiefest and most powerful persons among them at that time siding zealously with the Medes, and leading the multitude not according to their own inclinations, but as being subjects of an oligarchy.
From this point the chase was the most thrilling and reckless of which there is any record. Andrews resorted to his old trick of dropping cross-ties, but he soon saw that this would not do. Then he uncoupled one of his box cars. Captain Fuller picked it up, and pushed it ahead. Andrews uncoupled another. This was served the same way, and at Resaca the cars were run on a siding.
Together you sit tight under fire, put the bandages on the wounded, and speed back to a safer place. Once I went to the farthest outpost. A Belgian soldier stepped out of the darkness. "Come along, miss, I've a good gun. I'll take you." Walking up the road, not in the middle where machine guns could rake us, but huddled up by the trees at the siding, we went.
Moving forward he occupied the position which had confronted him so long. Thence, having spent some days in drawing in his scattered detachments and in mending the railway, he pushed forward on March 12th to Burghersdorp, and thence on the 13th to Olive Siding, to the south of the Bethulie Bridge.
I found a convenient train duly labelled to Lourenço Marques standing in a siding. I withdrew to a suitable spot for boarding it for I dared not make the attempt in the station and, filling a bottle with water to drink on the way, I prepared for the last stage of my journey.
