Trainstation 'Glons', situated on the railway between Hasselt, Limburg and Liege, Liege.
The line numbers is 34.The line is 54.8 km long.

The line was opened in different phases, the first part between Hasselt and Beverst was opened on October 1, 1856. Since WW1, the lines 24 and 34 in Glaaien (French: Glons) crossed each other with a bridge, without a connection between the two lines. In 1973 a connecting bend was taken into use between the high-lying line 24 and the low-lying line 34, after which the line section Tongeren - Nerem - Glazing of line 34 was put out of service and broken down. A bicycle and walking path has now been constructed on the riverbed, at least on the territory of the Flemish Region; the last piece on Walloon territory was filled up and integrated into the adjacent meadow
