An earlier poster pointed out that Pennsylvania 6-5000 is the phone number
of a hotel near a train station.  I think the poster said that train
patrons often stayed there?

  Maybe this song was pointing at BOB in the Great Northern hotel?
Maybe I'm stretching things to an absurd degree? :)  I have always
thought that whether Leland did it himself or not, he had
some knowledge of BOB and what might have happened to Laura.
Hey!  I even have a quote from the diary that suggests this.  pg 111.

"Maybe Dad knows BOB, too, but Mom won't let us talk about him
because it makes everyone... so upset...?  I don't know."

Also remember the scene at the Gazebo where Leland cries holding Laura,
afraid of something. (diary)

Leland knows alot about BOB than just what he looks like...
