New WW&F Song...

(1/2) > >>

Ed Lecuyer:
I'm working on a Christmas song that describes the present day WW&F to the early museum founders.

It's titled Harry, Did You Know?

Mike Fox:
Guess it's better than 'Twas the Night before Christmas Trains

Pete Stevens:
Everybody has to do a Christmas album.
Track three: Oh Little Town of Sheepscot, or of Albion. Maybe it's Wis-cas-set

Stewart "Start" Rhine:
Not really Christmas but "WW&F Song" made me think this narrow gauge knock-off that was posted on the old forum:       
(from memory written to the tune Moon River)

Sheepscot River, wider than a mile
I'm crossing you in style, narrow gauge.

Oh steam maker you coal breaker,
if switches are lined up I'm going your way.

Two coaches off to see the north,
 there's such a lot of track to see.

We're after the same two-foot train, waitin' round the bend my little Forney friend
Sheepscot River and me.

Stewart "Start" Rhine:
One for Fred -

Plowing through the snow, on the Sheepscot narrow gauge
O'er the grades we go - to Trout Brook today.
Bells on boilers ring, headlights shining bright
what fun it is to sing a song on the two foot gauge tonight.

Oh... Ringing bell coal smoke smell steaming all the way
oh what fun it is to ride on the Sheepscot narrow gauge, hey!
Ringing bell coal smoke smell steaming all the way
oh what fun it is to ride on the Sheepscot narrow gauge.
