I see in your Bikes area that you have one of those 2104 Trek Domanes. Future bike!
Don't know that bike but I did an interrupted tour on a Bridgestone RB-T using four panniers during the first part and a B.O.B. trailer during the second and the differences were slight. It mostly comes down to preference so I'd recommend you ride the bike you find most comfortable for such a trip and pack accordingly.
You can always ride the 520 with the trailer.
