#1178 D is a train (the D train)
632P
6:32 pm ("when" )
#1178 D
(Train #, Departs "the train left" )
40.750 -73.993
(Coordinates "the station" )
2 x 75W (r)
(2 bulbs at rear "it had two lights on behind" )
erm, nope.
white text hints:
1. No buts (about it), there's only one song that makes sense for this two line anagram.
2. Stones original by Rich Ragged Jars
3. Between 1965-69
4. No dogs or horses
4. Has a Joky Nordic beat
Well, I suppose the impossibility of recognising the D train from this side of the pond is fair reprisals for Olly's British-language clues. Thanks.
This coordinate is the middle of the ocean, so...
"He put the plane down in the sea, the end of Flight number 505"
Nope. Not even close.
Didn't think so...
DING DING DING
So that's how it works. Nice.
Impressive solve there, camper.
The numerical cluemiester continues. I tried to cut corners and put the whole clue into Google search. I was stymied however, when the top return on Google was this very page, haha!
Got a role!
Yes.
Awesome camper. Let loose the congratulatory confetti!
I was reading 67.9 as maybe 9/1967 ("Dandelion" released?) or a temperature 67.9F = 19.94F (1994? Voodoo Lounge?) and getting absolutely nowhere!
Affimative
Which code is that? It's been years since I had to translate hexadecimal into letters, but ours used to have 40 as space: the letters were C1-C9, D1-D9 and E1-E8.
(Aha. Just looked it up. Yours is ASCII whereas I worked on early IBM mainframes in EBCDIC.)

If it weren't an anagram, I'd say it was this:
All of my friends at school grew up and settled down
And they mortgaged up their lives
One things not said too much, but I think it's true
They just get married cause there's nothing else to do

schillid, would you mind explaining yours in full? I can see the two 75W lights on behind, and I'll take everyone's word for those being the co-ordinates of Penn Station, but how does the first bit work?

I bet your mama don't know you can bite like that
I bet she never saw you scratch my back
On second thought s this doesn't work, although the song looks plausible.
