Trains Connection 1 (Songs about trains)

 Well here's the first volume of What's The Connection? Trains. I made it after I made Ethan's Trains and it was inspired by that playlist. So I tried to not have any doubles. There are so many different train songs that you could make tons of these playlists. Butterboy has a good one on his site that you should check out. I hope you like this one. It does have a few in common with Butterboy, but also several that are not on his list. Again, ask anyone and they will have their favorite train songs. Make sure and tell me what you see is missing from this list in the comments.

Ethan's Trains Connection (Songs about trains)

Good friend of mine has a son who was crazy about trains. So I made this CD of train songs. for a What's The Connection? for him. This was aimed at him when he was a kid, so you get the whole Thomas and friends angle and a more mellow vibe throughout most of it. Some more out there but in general kid friendly. But this is a list that can grow up with you. How many kids grow up listening to Captain Beefheart and Velvet Underground? Plastics and Johnny Cash? So enjoy his playlist.
