The British Invasion was a phenomenon that occurred in the mid 1960s when a group of rock and pop music acts from the United Kingdom, as well as other aspects of British culture, became popular in the United States.

Chuck Berry's greatest vehicle song , and one of his best songs , period , barring possibly "Maybelline" , was "Downbound Train".The original "SS396" was released (Twice) as a promotional 45 by Paul Revere and The Raiders. It's been comped a couple of times on Raiders collections , and even on the first "Mexican Rumble: Psych- Out South of The Border" (!!). 'Night Train" was always believed to be about a train , but , maybe also about that FINE beverage (Buy it by the bottle , puke it by the roadside.), if only as an in - joke . When James Brown got around to doing a vocal version (The first?) , he rattled off all the train's destinations ("Miami , Florida, Atlanta , Georgia !)...... 

Screaming Blue Messiahs - Jesus Chrysler Drives a Dodge (love that tittle...)

Devils Dogs - Brand New Chevy

Vince Taylor and his Playboys - Brand New Cadillac

 

Besides, the medal for trains is deserved to Johnny Cash, i´m sure... His discography is well filled with any kind of trains. Aside from LPs-titles like "All about the Blue Train" and "Ride this Train" he has many many songs telling about. As he said himself with the song "I´ve got a thing about Train", we can find title like: "Blue Train", "Train of Love", "Hey Hey Train", "Waiting for a Train", "The evening Train", "Come along and ride this Train", "This Train is Bound for Glory", "Down there by the Train", "Life is a Railway to Heaven", "Georgia on a fast Train", "Let the Train blow the Whistle" and i guess some more...

and i´m agree with Bibliodiscoteque, the "Folsom Prison Blues" is a Train itself. :)

I confess, i had to peep in my I-tunes-library and find among others:

Elvis Presley and Stray Cats: Mystery Train

The Beatles: Drive my Car

The Yardbirds: Train kept a rollin´

James Brown: Night Train

The Cure: Subway Song

New Model Army: 51st State

Wall of Voodoo: On Interstate 15

The Fuzztones: Highway 69

The Cramps: Drug Train

Minimal Man: Trains

and please, don´t beat me ;)

Plastikman: Trains (minimal techno)

T.raumschmiere: Monster Truck Driver
