Reply to "Lyric question: The Elkhorn Special in Seeds?"

I love this song....

And I have always taken that as the name of the train that is passing them as they are hunkered down by the railroad tracks.

as it passes it's blowing his hair back.

 

In small town America they often have names for the freight trains that are "regulars"  (same time of day passing the town)
