Trains

There’s something timeless about the sound of a train—and Canadians have been singing about it for generations. Trains is a collection of songs that capture the rhythm of the rails, the romance of the journey, and the stories of those riding steel across the country. From lonesome whistles to boxcar blues, these tracks reflect Canada’s vast landscapes and the role trains have played in shaping our history, economy, and imagination. All aboard for a ride through one of music’s most enduring symbols.
