Lol, just encountered 2 titles with the word train while trawling through the box that's standing here next to me:

- Willis Wooten - Do the train (Virtue)

- Curley Moore - Soul train (Hot Line)

seeing as I just went through 1 box I guess there must be tons more...

Smokey Robinson's play on words "Train Of Thought"

"C'mon baby, ride my train of thought..."

Did you know the long tradition of "Train" themes in Soul lyrics are said to be inspired by the 'Underground Railroad'? - ie. the secret escape route for slaves to Canada.

"Members of The Underground Railroad often used specific jargon, based on the metaphor of the railway... The Railroad itself was often known as the "Freedom train" or "Gospel train," which headed towards "Heaven" or "the Promised Land" - Canada..."
