Not much on "This Train (Bound for Glory)" on Mudcat. Some early recordings:
1922- Florida Normal Industrial Institute Quartet
1925- Wood's (Famous) Blind Jubilee Singers
1828- Southern Plantation Singers
1929- Biddleville Quintet.
1939- Sister Posetta Tharpe

Looking for early texts, but haven't found any.
