Subject: I remember freight train

I remember Freight Train from the 60's when Peter, Paul and Mary recorded it. Good to know where it came from is being acknowledged. Will look out for more of your articles

Ms Gibson's great article brings back a lot of memories of when I first started playing guitar. Her detailed research into the history of these songs turned up some interesting information. I'll be watching for more articles.
