Bluegrass music has a lot of favorite themes: heartbreak, the blues, lonesomeness… hmm let’s see, what else… oh yeah, and trains! Some of the genre’s best anthems integrate the evocative sounds and feelings of the railroad. From Flatt and Scruggs’s “Big Black Train” to the New Coon Creek Girls’ haunting “The L&N Don’t Stop Here Anymore,” the railroad line has always served as a source of inspiration and storytelling for bluegrass’s best artists.
