Ave., LaSalle, Quebec H8P 2E7. Locomotive Engineer Moving fast on the main line, With little time to reflect. Diesel engines running fine, And operating rules in effect. On track with enormous weight. Through farms and forests to and fro, Hauling equipment with precious freight.
Locomotive engineers are a hardy breed, A clear signal is their visible gem.
They scrutinize the road indeed, And wave to people who wave at them. Reaching their destination without fail, Must be a wishful notion, Because steel wheels on steel rail, Are throttled to a proper motion.
