Country singer on a train | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

I was a Firehouse Sub place and saw a video of a country & western singer singing his song, 1000 miles from nowhere. Most of him singing was on a flat car or at the door of a boxcar. But what was interesting when he was shown on the front of the diesel engine, hanging on the stairs & on top of the nose. All this while the train was moving. I could not see the name of the RR, the engine was a gray color.

Side of the engine says Copper Basin. Check out somewhere around 2:54 minutes or so?

Darn, now I've got that Dwight Yokum song stuck in my head! :-)

Yoakam is still one of the most authentic C&W musicians out there.

He is, tho kind of partial to the Derailers "countrified" version of "Then She Kissed Me"

The title made me think this was a sequel to "Snakes on a Plane".

(Still a movie I don't want to see.)
