• The Train From Bloemfontein

Saved from the torches of the breaker's yard
Thirty years of service under African guard
Restored and oiled for one last ride
Six thousand miles to take in its stride

This is the train from Bloemfontein
Mighty workhorse of the African plain
This is the train from Bloemfontein
Of to Scotland...home again.

Into the valley of a thousand peaks
Twisting and turning the mountain class creaks
Icy wind bites, but no blazing coal
This ardeous journey is taking its toll

This is the train from Bloemfontein
Mighty workhorse of the African plain
This is the train from Bloemfontein
Of to Scotland...home again.

Fourty days and nights in the open sea
Out on a passage, spanning oceans, three
Stormy weathers brew around the treacherous cape
Will the precious cargo safely escape?

This is the train from Bloemfontein
Mighty workhorse of the African plain
This is the train from Bloemfontein
Of to Scotland...home again.

For old times sake, a final parade
Under shadows of spires and collonades
Conquered the ocean and the open road
It's the end of the line for this majestic load

This is the train from Bloemfontein
Mighty workhorse of the African plain
This is the train from Bloemfontein
Safely in Scotland...home again.
