Fine delicate picking, I imagine myself in a young lady's parlor 100 some years ago, being serenaded with the latest ragtime sensation. For those who don't know, the L & N was the Louisville & Nashville Railroad, which my father took many times for business trips to New Orleans. It is now part of the CSX system.

Thanks, Christine and Don. Don, I don't think you would be serenaded if there was an extra banjo in the parlor, but it would have made a nice duet. That's interesting about your dad riding the L & N. It causes me to want to know which train my grandmother rode back and forth to visit the grand kids.
