Train Train - Blackfoot
Marakesh Express - CSN&Y
And of course my train song, Catch the Night Train, posted as "Last Train" (momentary lapse of sanity) on my profile. It's the best one, of course...

Dylan - "It takes A Lot To Laugh, It Takes A Train to Cry".
Seatrain - "Orange Blossom Special". (A hundred other people have done this too).
Gene Clark (The Dillard & Clark Expedition) - "A Train Leaves here This Morning"
Jerry Jeff Walker? - "The City Of New Orleans"
Howling Wolf - "Smoke Stack Lightening" (Might be a stretch as a train song).

Dessalines - City of New Orleans was written by Arlo Guthrie, not Jerry Jeff Walker. One of Walker's best was Mr Bojangles, not a train song but a good oone...
