George Riley Puckett (May 7, 1894 – July 13, 1946) was an American country music pioneer mostly known for being a member of Gid Tanner and the Skillet Lickers.
Puckett was born in Dallas, Paulding County, Georgia. An accident during infancy left him blind. He had his formal education at the Georgia School for the Blind in Macon, Georgia.
He sang and played guitar and banjo. He was first heard on the radio as a part of Clayton McMichen's Hometown Band.
His vocalizing was a regular feature at the Georgia Old-Time Fiddlers Conventions. Newspaper reporters covering these events referred to him as the "Bald Mountain Caruso" in admiration of his renditions of such songs as "When You and I Were Young, Maggie" and "Sleep, Baby, Sleep". For several years Puckett played and sang with the Home Town Boys, a string-band ensemble composed of Atlanta-area musicians. They made their debut on Atlanta's six-month-old radio station, WSB, on September 18, 1922. Until going off the air in 1926, they remained one of the station's most popular acts.
Rail freight transport is the use of railroads and trains to transport cargo as opposed to human passengers.
A freight train or goods train is a group of freight cars (US) or goods wagons (UIC) hauled by one or more locomotives on a railway, transporting cargo all or some of the way between the shipper and the intended destination as part of the logistics chain. Trains may haul bulk material, intermodal containers, general freight or specialized freight in purpose-designed cars. Rail freight practices and economics vary by country and region.
When considered in terms of ton-miles or tonne-kilometers hauled per unit of energy consumed, rail transport can be more efficient than other means of transportation. Maximum economies are typically realized with bulk commodities (e.g., coal), especially when hauled over long distances. However, shipment by rail is not as flexible as by highway, which has resulted in much freight being hauled by truck, even over long distances. Moving goods by rail often involves transshipment costs, particularly when the shipper or receiver lack direct rail access. These costs may exceed that of operating the train itself, a factor that practices such as containerization aim to minimize.
Freight train may refer to:
Freight Train is a song on the 1989 album by Nitro, O.F.R.. In the video for Freight Train, Michael Angelo Batio uses the one-of-a-kind quad guitar, which is a guitar with 4 necks. The top two necks have 7 strings and the bottom 2 have 6 strings. Unfortunately, that guitar was stolen after the second performance of the "Nitro" "O.F.R" tour in El Paso, Texas. Then, in 2004, a fan showed up to one of Batio's performances with a guitar case. The fan opened up the case to reveal 2 of the four guitars that had made up the famous Quad Guitar.
The song is also notable for the shriek Jim Gillette performs before the first guitar solo, among the highest in popular heavy metal music.

Trains at Rail freight container terminal
The United States lags behind the rest of the world when it comes to passenger trains but when it comes to the freight railroad the U.S. is dominating. The U.S. freight rail network operates over 140,000 miles of privately-owned track in every state except Hawaii, according to the Association of American Railroads. It moves one-third of all U.S. exports and roughly 40% of long distance freight volume. It competes directly with the trucking industry to move goods around the country. Shipping everything from coal to cars to chemicals. And with the rise of e-commerce companies like Amazon, trains are increasingly moving consumer goods as well. There are seven major freight railroads that connect North America. Union Pacific and BNSF dominate the west. CSX and Norfolk Southern are the prim...
Have you noticed waits at railroad crossings have been getting longer? It's not just you, freight trains have been getting longer, from 5,000 feet to more than 10,000 feet long. Cheddar explains what's behind this trend and why it's more than just an inconvenience for those of us stuck at a light. CORRECTION: At 4:46 in the video we mention railroads are building infrastructure to accommodate these longer trains to the tune of $25 million a year. Instead, that number should be $25 billion for total railroad investment on capital expenditures and maintenance. Subscribe to Cheddar on YouTube: http://chdr.tv/subscribe Connect with Cheddar!

A mega compilation I've put together of Freight Trains, Engineering Trains & Locomotive Movements caught on camera over the last few years. During the pandemic the Railway has played a more vital role transporting goods & cargo across the UK. In this 65 minute long video you will see non stop action from a mix of diesel & electric locomotives doing their thing hauling Freight, filmed from all over the UK from a variety of locations. The main workhorse these days of British Rail Freight is of course the class 66. The 66's will show up just about anywhere so there is undoubtedly a huge amount of class 66's featured, operated by various operators in many colourful liveries. Other than the class 66'...
Rail freight plays a vital part in ensuring a greener future for the construction industry. It’s perfect for transporting large amounts of our products across the country, while taking trucks off the road and decreasing supply chain emissions. We work closely with partners including Network Rail, GB Railfreight, DB Cargo and Victa to ensure our customers receive the right materials for their projects, when and where it is needed. This short video talks through the rail operation at CEMEX UK, the role it plays in our ongoing sustainability strategy, and the future of this transport method. #transportforagreenerfuture

READ: In today's day and age of precision scheduled railroading, train lengths are ever increasing, made possible by radio-controlled DPUs and limited only by the capability of the pneumatic air brake system. Great for railfans, not so great for railroad crew employment. Enjoy the action and stay tuned for more =) Make sure to check out my partner's channel, 510trackside [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCc8AGGZGgcdsBlgiJYQbmtA], where you will find great railfanning footage like this and more.

Freight train freight train goin' so fast
Freight train freight train goin' so fast
Please don't tell what train I'm on
So they won't know where I've gone
Freight train, freight train, comin' round the bend
Freight train, freight train, gone again
One of these days turn that train around
Go back to my hometown
Freight train freight train goin' so fast
Freight train freight train goin' so fast
Please don't tell what train I'm on
So they won't know where I've gone
One more place I'd like to be
One more place I'd love to see
To watch those old blue ridge mountains climb
As I ride ol' number nine
Freight train freight train goin' so fast
Freight train freight train goin' so fast
Please don't tell what train I'm on
So they won't know where I've gone
When I die please bury me deep
Down at the end of bleecker street
So I can hear ol' number nine
As she goes rollin' by
Freight train freight train goin' so fast
Freight train freight train goin' so fast
Please don't tell what train I'm on
