Subject: RE: Bobert's Entombed Train Story (100% factual)
The Church Hill collapse was also included in Katie Letcher Lyle's Scalded To Death By The Steam, and has words (but no tune) to a contemporary song by a Southern brakesman, Llewellyn Lewis, with the chorus:

Brothers keep shovelin',
Pickin' in the ground,
Brothers keep listenin'
For the train that's never been found.
