Irene Kelley - Carolina Special

QMCH32100081

Train songs are always a favorite in bluegrass and for me to record. Terry Herd has a good track record for writing them and had this idea. The Carolina Special was an actual line that operated 1911 to 1968. It was the last passenger train to use the route of the Charleston and Hamburg Railroad, which began operation in December 1830 as the South Carolina Canal and Railroad Company, as one of the oldest railroads in the USA Surely she misses the track, surely she's haunted. Terry, Ronnie, and I wrote this song one afternoon during the pandemic.I knew right away that I had to include on the next record.
