5643 = 33 x 11 x 19
With so much left undone
5643 = 33 x 11 x 19
With so much left undone
5644 = 22 × 17 × 83
Remember me to my love,
5645 = 5 x 1129
I know I’ll miss her.
5646
Hmmm…
5647, prime. We’ll find the next one four units down the road.
And now for something completely different. Your turn?
5648
Riding on the City of New Orleans
5649 = 2 x 7 x 269
Illinois Central, Monday morning rail
5650 = 2 × 52 × 113
15 cars and 15 restless riders
5651, prime.
3 [prime too] conductors, 25 [not prime] sacks of mail
5652
All along the southbound odyssey
5653, prime again. They often come in pairs, separated by two units.
the train pulls out of Kankakee
5654 = 2 x 11 x 257
Rolls along past houses, farms and fields
5655
Passin’ trains that have no name
[Fun fact: a train that has no name is a freight train. Passenger trains all have names: the City of New Orleans, the Twentieth Century Limited, the Canadian, the Ocean …]
5656 = 23 x 7 x 101
and freight yards full of old black men
[I don’t know whether your fun fact is true in Europe too, would fit. Here passenger planes have names, wonder if cargo planes have names too; I don’t know, I have never flown in one.]
5657, another prime
And the graveyards of the rusted automobiles
[Well, if you had, that would have made it a passenger plane, no?]
5658
Good morning America how are you?
[I guess I wasn’t clear. It’s the passenger train routes in North America that have names: the City of New Orleans runs between Chicago and New Orleans, the Twentieth Century Limited runs between New York and Chicago, the Canadian runs between Toronto and Vancouver, and so on. The locomotives have no names, only numbers, but if they’re hauling a passenger train between Toronto and Vancouver, then they are part of the Canadian.
We don’t tend to give individual airliners in North America names, though there could be exceptions. At any rate, air routes don’t have names here, in the way that passenger train routes do.]
5659, another prime, or 5.659 × 103
Said don’t you know me, I’m your native son
5660 = 22 x 5 x 283
I’m the train they call the City of New Orleans
[Ah, I see. Things are different here, plane- train- and routewise]
Indeed.
5661 = 32 x 17 x 37
I’ll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done
5662 = 2 x 19 x 149
Dealing card games, with the old men in the club car
