1970s, 1980s

Rodney Brown & The Derailers

The Derailers consist of

Checking out the headlines, it has indeed been a year for train derailments across the country (with major derailments near Dorion and Red Rock in the past few months) - making Rodney Brown's classic song "The Freight Train Derailed" right in vogue. This tune, from which the group's name was derived, became their signature song and is familiar to all those who were fans of the Derailers in the 70's & 80's. It is also one of the songs recorded (with the Derailers) on Rodney Brown's 1980 release of "When the Bay Turns Blue" which Ian Tamblyn produced.
