Train Songs List – Songs With Train in the Title
Our top 10 train songs are for those who are planning train themed parties or for those who just love trains as much as we do. Who doesn’t love the model train that goes under the Christmas tree, or the one that travels around the kid’s room, or the one that is set-up in the basement that has a full town scene with people, trees, churches, general store, park with ice skating rink and much more?
No, it doesn’t need to be Midnight to listen to these songs. No you don’t need to be crazy either. You don’t need to be in love too. All you need to be is a person who likes trains as much as we do. Think we should add a popular song? Comment it in at the bottom comments section.
Our train songs are special. Each song below has the word train in the song title.

Party train from the GAP Band is a must.
Hi Jimmi. Thanks for the suggestion as it needed to be on our list. It is now!
I’d like to add Trains (Porcupine Tree), Train of consequences (Megadeth), Train of Thought (Dream Theater’s album), and Observe the Train (Leprous)
Thanks Chalo for the suggestions. I will add them to the list!
Peace Train? I’m thinking it should be at the top of the list.
Thanks for the suggestion, Michael. Yes, we missed adding the Cat Stevens song but added it to the list.

Who sang the early 70s pop song next train to london? I don’t think It’s ELO.
Hi iceman. Yes, there is a song “Next Plane to London” by the Rose Garden in 1967. Was that the song you were thinking of today? We already have the ELO song on the list.
Yep
