A060135 Sequence of adjacent transpositions (a[n] a[n]+1), which, when starting from the identity permutation and applied successively, produce a Hamiltonian circuit through all permutations of S_4, in such way that S_{n-1} is always traversed before the rest of S_n. Furthermore, each subsequence from the first to the (n!-1)-th term is palindromic. +0

COMMENT

This is lexicographically the ninth of all such Hamiltonian paths through S4.

I will try to extend this in some elegant fashion through all S_inf so that the same criteria will hold. There are 466 ways to extend this to S5.
