I think the last commentor is lonely? I just posted a clawhammer version of this! All aboard!

I'm surprised someone your age doesn't know the difference between a train conductor and an engineer, but maybe even you are too young to have ridden a train.

It's the conductor who shouts "All Aboard!" and the engineer who operates the train.
