Subject: RE: Hey, That Song Sounds Like...
There's an old Vermont/railroading song that Margaret MacArthur sings, called the Central Vermont Tragedy. It's about an old passenger train that went off the trestle around White River Junction, Vt., and burned when the individual stoves in the passenger cars tipped over. Every time I hear it I think it reminds me of a Country Western tune, but when I asked Curmudgeon about it, he said it didn't ring any bells.
