Description


Wabash Cannonball - American Folk Tune - Author Uknown "She came down from Birmingham one cold December day As she rolled in the station you could hear all the people say There's a girl from Tennessee she's long and she's tall She came down from Birmingham on the Wabash Cannonball" "The Wabash Cannonball" is an American folk song about a fictional train, thought to have originated in the late nineteenth century. Its first documented appearance was on sheet music published in 1882, titled "The Great Rock Island Route" and credited to J. A. Roff. All subsequent versions contain a variation of the chorus: A rewritten version by William Kindt appeared in 1904 under the title "Wabash Cannon Ball".[1] The Carter Family made one of the first recordings of the song in 1929, though it was not released until 1932. Another popular version was recorded by Roy Acuff . There are many theories of the origin of "The Wabash Cannonball". Utah Phillips states that hobos imagined a mythical train called the "Wabash Cannonball" which was a "death coach" that appeared at the death of a hobo to carry his soul to its reward. Thanks for the views, comments, and visits. I greatly appreciate you taking time to look at my works. It means a lot to me. PS...If someone knows who modeled the cool train , please let me know, I would love to get credit.

Very sexy! I love the old train. My Dad worked for the railroad (ticket clerk) and I remember as a child these big old steam trains. Nothing to compare any more.

There are still some vintage trains like this one out there, but they don't run as often as I'd wish. Lovely render, Dag!
