I do love her voice(https://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-cool.gif)
Made famous by New Riders of the Purple Sage this is a great cover…
Arguably the only “real” train song on this thread. Not exactly Pop music but interesting. There are several of these on U-tube (some with vintage footage) along with some excerpts from several interviews and documentaries…
Gotta have this one too…
And another…
Can’t you see.

Maybe your favorites are on here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NdvkODzSFeg&list=PL9B74C61DA7173631
Must Listen!
It makes a difference to the sheep…
Another by Utah Phillips. Called “Moose Turd Pie” Well really more of a story than a song but a good railroad tale.

Some are true railroad songs and others, and I’m guilty (Can’t You See) only mentions trains. (https://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-sealed.gif)
The other two I posed are true train songs.

Ok, one last one.
Last Train to Clarksville by The Monkees
Going to see Mickey and Mike, live, in Tahoe in June. Just got the tickets.

Lotsa good songs on this thread, thanks to everybody who posted.
My 2 cents:
My hands-down favorite all time train song is Texas 1947 as sung by Johnny Cash:
