Was trying to remember the name of the blues tune playing in my head about trains, so did a quick search. Well hell, this isn't going to help. Apparently there are dozens and dozens of train songs.

There is only one train song: Midnight Special
All I could find is a version by Creedence Clearwater. Nowhere near as good as the Johnny Rivers version I grew up to.
