Toronto is the town with the tracks a block apart.

Progress moves slowly?   The word isn't even understood.   I recall a  
lot of cracks in the pavement but I cannot remember Toronto.   I'm  
having trouble in my mind sorting Toronto from Wellsville from all  
the other towns that looked equally depressed.    And Ed isn't going  
to answer you because he's in Minneapolis this week.

Toronto ... isn't that the town with the single track a block apart  
in each direction in the north end of town?
