: : : What is source of:
: : : "Like two trains passing in the night"

: : I haven't heard that. I have heard "two ships passing in the night." From the archives:

: : It's from Longfellow's poem: The Theologian's Tale: Elizabeth, from the collection titled The Theologian's Tale.

: : "Ships that pass in the night, and speak each other in passing;
: : Only a signal shown and a distant voice in the darkness;
: : So on the ocean of life we pass and speak one another,
: : Only a look and a voice; then darkness again and a silence."

: Wasn't "two trains" famous for the guitar work of Leslie West?

wrong track entirely

I meant Lowell George in Little Feat; Leslie West's caboose was "Southbound Train", Sorry.
