    Song: It's Great To Be An Engine
    Composed by: Mike O'Donnell and Junior Campbell

    The iron horse, what American's don't thrill of a sight of a speeding train. The power and speed of trains have increased tremendously. Just about everyone likes to watch trains go by, and the most up to date diesel power trains. For more than a century the hotting moist of the iron horse equated to cross the land.
