:) Would someone be so kind as to direct me to a source where I can learn about "last train". It used to mean the last train to Memphis, but this one is new to me. I guess its because I haven't played serious bridge since the year Elvis died.

lTTC Last Train to Clarksville.(Great Monkees song)

Popularized by Jeff Meckstroth but Jeff Rubens wrote about it over 25 years ago.

The Official Encyclopedia of Bridge is one good source.
