Arlo Guthrie & Pete Seeger doing “Wabash Cannonball” live.
I should redo this video, as I have a lot more steam photos now.

A train song most of you have probably never heard.
The pictures should be familiar to many of you, though :wink:

Not really specificaly a train song but from a movie “Oh Brother Where Art Thou” There is a song playing as the intro credits roll and the movie begins where the main characters escape from the chain gang then try to hop a moving train then have to settle for a ride on a hand pump car.
The song is “The Big Rock Candy Mountain” sung by Harry McClintock. Maybe it is a train song since it is kinda about hobos and vagrants moving around trying to make it during the depression. I sometimes find myself singing or humming it when I’m playing trains. I have a small MP3 player with the soundrack from the movie on it and I have been meaning to paint up a boxcar to advertise “Dapper Dan” for those who have seen the movie you will know what I mean.

I know how I would model that star cruiser in the first few seconds of that video. It would tell time if you pointed up or down.
