Tech: Tradl Folk stream or internet radio?

I posted a question like this years ago but things might have changed since then . . .

I'm always trying to add to my collection of recordings of traditional folk music.   The first step is "discovery" - listening to music and taking notes of the songs and artists I like so I can find a place to buy their work.   I'm looking for internet radio stations or streams that play mostly traditional folk.   

I have lots of English and Celtic folk already so I'm most interested in songs from the US and Canada, Australia or New Zealand, especially work songs like building canals and railroads, digging for gold, working in mills, trapping, logging, etc, or transport, slavery, labour organising, settlement, etc.    It's hard to find "folk music" stations that play much traditional stuff.   

Thanks in advance!
