Do you recall from yesterday’s time,
When steam was the king of the road
There was an engine that rode the UP line
Nine Thousand was her name
She was 4-12 and 2 and she had a rendezvous
With one hundred cars to pull up Touhy Hill
Now she is gone, but her memory lingers on
Nine Thousand was her name
Her mighty drivers’ roar are gone and heard no more
From Oak Valley where she road to fame
The diesel won the race but cannot take her place
Nine Thousand was her name
And they still say at night, when the wind is blowing right
You can hear the lonesome whistle from that train
How could I know, that I would miss her so
Nine Thousand was her name
And they still say at night, when the wind is blowing right
You can hear the lonesome whist
