[QUOTE]Originally posted by Railroad Bob: [QB] Great thread and some wonderful songs listed here. I'll add Norman Blake's "Down Home Summertime Blues." If you don't know Norman, he is probably the best flat picker there is. Has quite a few train-themed original tunes. Here is a sample lyric: "Silver rails, talking wires, Black crossties and the hoboes fires, Lord, I've got the down home summertime blues. Down by the watertank, down by the depot, See that train just a comin' in really slow. Me and Ben just sittin' in a boxcar, Strumming and pickin' that depot guitar.." And so on. Gotta be a cool RR station that includes a "depot guitar." Norman recorded a huge catalog with Rounder and Rhino in the 70s/80s; he is something of a recluse. [/QB][/QUOTE]
