Wasn’t able to give this a lot of thought, and didn’t peruse my collection for possibilities. Still very tough cutting this down to ten. It wasn’t until putting this list together that I realized how many train songs have become part of the repertoire of old timey songs that I play. Many of those are included here.
1. Mystery Train–Elvis Presley
2. Midnight Train to Georgia–Gladys Knight & the Pips
3. Train Kept a Rolin’–Yardbirds
4. Can’t You See–Marshall Tucker Band
5. This Train (Is Bound for Glory)–Sister Rosetta Tharpe
6. Train, Train–Blackfoot
7. The Wabash Cannonball–The Carter Family
8. Dixie Flyer–Randy Newman
9. The Rail Song–Adrian Belew
10. The Wreck of the Old ’97–Vernon Dalhart
