"This 1965 album finds Roy Acuff revisiting many classic train songs that he personally made popular and recorded during his long career. Songs include the harmonica-driven rouser "Freight Train Blues," a song he first cut in 1947, as well as revivals of his romping `42 classics "Night Train To Memphis" and "Fireball Mail," the ubiquitous "Wabash Cannonball," Hank Williams' "Pan American," and Roy's own "The Streamline Cannonball." This classic album also features the original album art and is making its CD debut."
