Nice! I've never been on a train before and this is the best I can get!

[ehill1536]

I love this song! Doesn't everyone feel like taking a trip?

[21CCommunIT]

Call me crazy... but I have always seen a kinship between country music and hip hop -- maybe it's in the story telling, and the love of the narrative.

Anyways, here's a song many know, who never even heard of Eddie Rabbit. This, and "Love A Rainy Night" always created such a mood for me, back in the days before the balkanization of pop radio...

Haha when that guy got of the train I though he was taking a leak

This song takes me back to my early childhood.. :)

A good train movie is Under Siege 2 with Steven Seagaal.

@binka21 Indeed, but how about Runaway Train..?

[AreWildZ28]

Great song..

[stephenrankin12345]

Actually it's for just truck drivers and trains are trying to take over trucking...

[yamahonkawazuki]

@stephenrankin12345 ehh its for whoever wants to listen to it. trans wont take over trucking. for mainly one reason. tracks dont end up at every business or store or home. whereas trucks can, and do go . so its safe

[tpr450]

i know the song is for the truck drivers out there....but the railroad operators are in the same boat .........didos...to all .... you keep AMERICA running ......so PROUD and THANK YOU to you all who keep this country ROLLIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Great soundtrack and great vid footage. Bit different to what I see out on the nullabor driving from Kalgoorlie to Cook. Thanks for posting.

[JonathanG]

@doinmister As a truck driver crossing the endless reaches of New Mexico here, the Nullabor is still one endless reach I'd love to do. In fact, looking back, I shoulda immigrated from NZ to Oz, not the States, tsk.

[DesertSavvy]

Well done! The visuals are beautiful and the sound is great. I haven't been south of the equator so thank you for taking me to Otago.

[JonathanG]

@DesertSavvy Yes, me mate Paul (youtube: Pullisto) drives the excursion train there - he took the beaut' footage. Makes me homesick as anything. Pullisto has alot of great NZ footage so I'd recommend checking him out.

Yeh, in fact it has been very dry the last while mate, except for last 2 days... 'onya!
