TYCO's brown box era had a fixation for fantasy trains of "song themed" railroads. In addition to The Chattanooga Choo Choo, Clementine, Comin Round the Rocky Mountain, Midnight Special, they WERE thinking of doing others. Any more come to mind? How about the City of New Orleans? -Bob

I've often noted the same theme... hence my insistence there must be a Wabash Canonball shark out there.
Interesting City of New Orleans set. The CoNO was a real named passenger train run by the Illinois Central (inherited and still still run by Amtrak); your set there looks like a slightly-modified Rock Island consist. I like the logos though.
