Is anyone aware of old songs about the Ashtabula Train Disaster of 1876?
It seems likely there were some. It was the worst US train wreck up until that time - almost 100 people died, most of them horribly. One of them was Philip Bliss, a popular and famous hymn-writer.
And, yes I know about a recent song by Howard Micenmacher. Not interested. I'm only interested in songs from the era of the disaster.
