@ 1960-62 I was given as a gift a 12" vinyl LP of folk/railroad-themed songs aimed at kids. The first track on Side 1 was I've Been Working on the Railroad. Other songs included Billy Boy, Finiculi Finicula and Little Brown Jug. Possibly John Henry and/or Casey Jones, too.
The nice front cover art was a drawing of either a train or perhaps a paddle/show boat with a hobo-like figure riding the rear playing a banjo.
Problem is I can't recall either the album title or the artists, but it's hard to recall exact things from when you were as young as five.
Ring any bells? Thanks, folks.
