We ought to bring back trains--certainly for freight. One loco can haul 100 boxcars, and each boxcar can hold as much as--what?--2-3 semi trucks... think of the savings!
@@style5tie Vega didn't make the 6 string neck for Sonny. C.E.Ward in Charlotte, N.C. made it in late 1969 or early 1970. By late spring or early summer of 1972 Sonny had a Gibson with a 6 string neck in it. The best I remember a man named M.K. Kirk made that neck for him.
RIP Bobby, the sweetest tenor to ever lift his voice up to the heavens.

Very nice photo's
Awesome! I bet he loved it.
I love this one, much love from Sweden =D
Love the piano solo...
love this song, and the way that sonny plays!
I'm going to say it is Southern Pacific 4-6-2 #2472 but not sure, going by the tender it's definitely a Southern Pacific locomotive, though.

Here she comes look at her roll
There she goes eatin' that coal
Watch her fly look at her sail
Let her by, by, by, the fireball mail.
--- Instrumental ---
Let her go look at her steam
Hear her blow whistle and scream
Like a hound waggin' his tail Dallas
Bound, bound, boud, the fireball mail.
--- Instrumental ---
Engineer makin' up time
tracks are clear look at her climb
See that freight clearin' the rail
I bet she's late, late, late, the fireball mail.
--- Instrumental ---
Watch her swerve look at her sway
Get that curve out of the way
Watch her fly look at her sail
Let her by, by, by, the fireball mail.
Yeah, let her by, by, by, the fireball mail...
Floyd Jenkins aka Fred Rose

Nope, 3985 is the famous 4-6-6-4 Challenger.

🏇
sonny on the 6 string????
Yes sir.
Sonny Osborne on the 6 string banjo.
Before him everybody(as far as I know) played a 5 string.
Everybody still plays a 5 string. His 6 was a custom built Vega and they are extremely rare.

Is this a variation of Georgia Mail?
No.
Is that Jon Anderson singing? ;-)
No, Bobby Osborne.
