Hi:
When i got back into the hobby about a year and a half ago my wife made me two CD's with train related, sometimes just by song title, songs. I find them fun to listen to when I’m working on trains or setting up at a show. There’s a big variety of styles on them, but I like that aspect. Thought I’d share the titles with you folks and also see if you knew any other songs I could use on the next CD.
