Thread Name: song about Martin Marauder (B-26)
Subject: RE: Martin Marauder (B-26)
Most don't have the closer association that we do with trains and ships. In a pinch, most of us feel we can beach the boat or stop the train, but we know zip about how to land a plane!

Actually the DT lists 53 songs as airplane related and in looking through them, they are more about people and events or situations. There aren't too many more for trains and if you think about it, not many songs are written about "The Berkshire Locomotive" either. Most train songs are about people or situations and not the equipment itself. Of course there have been a lot of songs about "reefers." (that's grass and not a refrigerated boxcar)......(:<))
