Post Description

A nostalgic look at the history of the American railroad as told in story and song by the legendary JOHNNY CASH.(originally filmed and aired in 1974).

"There's nothing that stirs my imagination like the sound of a steam locomotive - that lonesome whistle cutting through the night and that column of black smoke & steam throwing shadows across the land.
When I was a boy the trains ran by my house and they carried with them a promise that somewhere down the track anything would be possible." - JOHNNY CASH
