Two Trains Running

Precedence in the original record was reversed. Wilson's Dutton-era plays were issued as a Dutton hardcover first, with the Plume trade paperback following, as the parallel titles demonstrate (The Piano Lesson: Dutton hardcover January 1990, Plume paperback October 1990; Seven Guitars: Dutton hardcover 1996, Plume paperback 1997). The Dutton hardcover of Two Trains Running is therefore the true first; the Plume paperback is a later, secondary issue.
