Old Jordan Railway, Jordan, 1996

"All that remains of the Hejaz Railway in south Jordan is scraps of rusty iron; here Lawrence [of Arabia] dynamited Turkish trains and tracks, catching the world's attention. In turn, war shattered Lawrence and his illusions. He was captured by the Turks, beaten, and raped. And when the revolt succeeded, his country betrayed his Arab comrades."

约旦南部的汉志铁路（Hejaz Railway）只剩下了锈铁残渣，就在这里，阿拉伯的劳伦斯炸毁了土耳其的火车和轨道，引起了全世界的注意。反过来，战争也粉碎了劳伦斯和他的幻想。他被土耳其人俘获，遭受了残酷的折磨。当（阿拉伯）反抗取得成功的时候，劳伦斯的祖国却背叛了他的阿拉伯盟友。
