glauber Origins: Someone's in the kitchen with Dinah (102* d) Origins: Someone's in the kitchen with Dinah 16 Dec 03

Hello, if there's anyone who knows, she or he is probably in this forum, so i'll ask: why is the locomotive called Dinah? My guess is it has something to do with "dynamite", but maybe there's a better explanation?

Another question: are there any additional meanings on "someone's in the kitchen with Dinah playing on that old banjo"? I have a feeling that there may be sexual overtones, as in another old song (Irish) where it says "i took my fiddle out and played my love a song".

Thanks for indulging my curiosity.
