309 is probably a number of some train he may have used. I am a train conductor... all trains have a specific number indicating its schedule and direction of travel...
In a typical manner that is known only to be owned by Johnny Cash to go out in style on his last days. May I be able to at least have a fraction of this man's class when my day comes. R.I.P. Johnny Cash, you deserve it.
the 309 stands for the train that takes you to either heaven or hell(i think)

I believe that's Johnny Cash at end against the wall, Carl Perkins in the middle, and Jerry Lee Lewis and the end, and of course Elvis at the Piano!

@Gaxo2 He wrote the song about death and i think 309 is probably the train number of his death train or something like he mentions in a lot of songs.
