Special thanks to the Los Angeles Rapid Transit District for their splendid cooperation; to Professor Lumetta for his able assistance; and to Mr. Edward Hyde for providing constant inspiration and support.

Notes:
Someone has suggested that the figure in the driver's seat on the cover image may be Van Morrison... The "T. B. Sheets" track is mistakenly credited to John Lee Hooker.
