Enjoy

Can't believe I forgot this ..... Locomotive Breath (for all you youngsters out there) it's from Aqualung by Jethro Tull.

Death metal shred

Excellent choice - us Northern Soul brothers need to stick together! Keep on keeping on...…

5.15 & Don Thomas' Come On Train in the same post...…..Epic, Carl!

Trains and boats and planes... can't remember who by
Waiting for a train, Elvis, Merle haggard,,Hank snow, Jimmy Rogers
The streamline cannonball, Hank snow
Pan American. Seldom scene.

Can't think of an American artist who hasn't done a train song, it is part of U.S. folk lore

Some good choices Harry but I think the original needs to posted

Ah, the sublime Curtis Mayfield - brilliant.
Then again, there's always this reasonable enough cover version by an obscure guitar guy and some warbling singer....


Oh, and I just remembered these....






PS. Eva Cassidy also did a fantastic version of Sandy Denny's "Who Knows Where the Time Goes", but it doesn't fit in with the theme here - bit of a shame that.
PPS. I did think about "Train in Vain" by The Clash, but........it's got nuthin' to do with trains or railways.

Rod Stewart - Downtown Train (prefer Rod's version to the original, but that's just me )

Time to change your medication

Umm, I better look for some new meds as well then Del........cos I prefer Roderick's version too....

OK I suppose that the Law of Averages means that there are some adult male fans of Rod Do Ya Think I'm Sexy, out there
Here's one from Springsteen

Following is just my opinion of course;
Rodders was brilliant up until 1975's "Atlantic Crossing", which despite two or three classics was a bit ho-hum. Then the alarm bells really started ringing with 1976's "A Night On The Town".
After that it was more like A Night On The (Disco) Tiles, apart from occasional bursts of good stuff like "Downtown Train".
The 2000's saw him essentially singing for my old Maiden Aunties and I gave up on him.
He then surprised the life out of me with 2013's "Time" which rocketed him right back to the glory days of the early 1970's.
His two subsequent albums, "Another Country" and "Blood Red Roses" have been brilliant as well.
Give them a try - it'll be well worth it.

Yeah well, I probably should've made clear I was including his music with the Faces as well.
Remember "In A Broken Dream", when he was guest vocalist with Python Lee Jackson? Sorry it's not a Train song.


Funnily enough, I've been going through my (Steve Marriott) Small Faces and Humble Pie collection trying to find a relevant song for this thread, but come up with a blank so far.
