In the spring of 1923, the American poet and critic Ezra Pound was holed up in Rimini. The library in which he wanted to work was closed — “the damn custode has flu” he wrote to his wife Dorothy. In that same letter, Pound told Dorothy of his plans to explore the local area a little and to take the train up to San Marino.
Pound was in fact a little prescient in his plans, for although the idea of a railway from Rimini to San Marino had been around for many years, the line was not in fact opened until 1932.
