Lyrical Locomotion

Artwork by Music City Murals  

Lyrical Locomotion pulls together a medley of iconic song lyrics that celebrate trains as symbols of longing, escape, freedom and movement. The mural features lines from beloved hits like “Midnight Train to Georgia,” “Peace Train” and “Love Train,” among many others. This nostalgic collage echoes the rhythm of the tracks and the storytelling tradition that has made trains a lasting metaphor in American music, each line a ticket to a different emotional journey.
