It’s funny, I think Dylan is a lousy songwriter, but when I read your post, the first thing I thought was: “I’ll look for you in old Honolula, San Francisco, Ashtabula”. I do like that song, though.

Dylan a lousy songwriter? Good lord. Makes a change from the usual complaint that he can’t sing, I suppose.

Interesting picture. I’m sure British railways didn’t have wagons of that size in the 1950s, let alone in 1900. I guess most things are bigger in the States.
