"Leaving COLLL-FAX, CALIFORN-I-AXXX!" - from "US Highball" a cantata for vocalists and chamber ensemble about hobos riding trains, written by Harry Partch - eccentric American classical composer and train-riding hobo. of which a performance may be seen here: ruclips.net/video/wjk4c8l-WJ8/видео.html (that particular line is at about 3:20). Note that the singers and musicians are all dressed as hobos. Also, the weird out-of-tune-ness is intentional: Partch's music contains many notes that are in the cracks.

Nice Catch Jordan Good video...
Great video. I subscribed to your channel as well!
Thank you!
We had #3 & #4 meet in East Flagstaff today!
I love this train. But I only take it from SF to just before Auburn. So I miss a lot of the beauty of the sierra sadly.
