SPOILER ALERT
There's an exhaustive list of train songs already compiled on Wiki.
Not all use train rhythms, but a lot of them do.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_train_songs
Here are my last five, (missing on the list):
FIREBALL MAIL - Roy Acuff
THE LITTLE TRAIN - Erich Storz & Marianne Vasel
STREAMLINE TRAIN - Vipers Skiffle Group
FREIGHT TRAIN BOOGIE - Delmore Brothers
CHOO CHOO TRAIN - Doris Day (I know, Nigel beat me to it)
