Amen to that. Don't listen to modern country. Grew up with Roy Acuff, the Wheeling Jamboree, Hank Williams, Grandpa Jones, Minnie Pearl and her straw bonnets, Louisville, and WSM radio Grand Ole OPRY @ the Roman. Such wonderful stories in each song. 🎉
Boxcar Willie was a natural born entertainer his down home hobo style of music is always a pleasure to hear an I loved that famous train whistle he would do ! Boxcar may you be singing in heaven and making that whistle sound for our Lord ! Boxcar may you R.I.P
country was awesome in there days,i miss story music now its like country is trying to pay country rock lol,my favorite by him is move it over,first song i remember at 5 yrs old,lol
I was fortunate to see Boxcar Willie in Branson,Mo back in 1996. He was awesome & so down to earth. Visited with all of us after the show in his train museum. My 2 yo loved him. And yes that natural train whistle that comes out of his mouth is amazing!
Comment if you ever had the pleasure and honor of seeing Boxcar perform live... I got to see Boxcar perform over a hundred of times...... Lord I miss those days.....
Man,, if only,, I was born 23rd May 1968 from northern Ireland UK, so wouldn't have no way to see this great man, but grew up hearing his songs over here in northern Ireland UK,! As well as other great singers , in country,! God Bless, 🤝♥️🇬🇧

I got to meet Boxcar Willie in Newport South Wales United Kingdom back in 1991. What a brilliant evening we had. He was such a nice man to talk to. I had a photo taken with him and he signed his autograph on a cassette box for me.
No-one and I mean no-one could make a train whistle sound like Boxcar. He sounded so much like a train that I would get out of the way because I thought for sure that one was a coming...I heard Boxcar in person maybe over a hundred times
I was a huge fan of Boxcar, and was actually called to do my train whistle during the fan segment of Nashville Now with Ralph Emory. It was 92 if I can recall. Me 5 minutes of fame!!
i got to meet boxcar willie when i was a kidbut when i wanted his autograph he refused to sign mine card but signed cards to 50 other people so at that point of time i hate him and never forget that time he hurt my feelings.

Wish there was songs on the radio like this today! A lot of music on country radio today is nothing but pure crap!

I loved Boxcar Willy!!
Country music these days is not real country music!!! I grew up in the 1960's and 1970's the music was a lot better!!
I’m 62 and I still like the band intros like a kid at the circus . “The twin straaaatavarius”Howard “Peepalpad”
RIP Boxcar Willie, The best natural steam whistler in the world.

Look up what David Icke said about him

My daddy could do the train whistle. He did it just as well as boxcar willy.
He was a great entertaining
Wish I could have gotten there to branson missouri To see him.
Only Found he is good from Scotland
Super
How does Old Boxcar Willie make that sound ?
Wish i knew also
Probably someway similar to blowing smoke rings
Love me some Boxcar. I know he gives Roy Acuff a lot of credit but I think he got the train sound from Onie Wheeler Roy’s harmonica player.
Brilliant
Every time I see Boxcar Willie, I think of Sheldon dressed as a train engineer on BB Theory
He is awesome bless him
Everyone watching this alone is trying to imitate that whistle sound
Box Car was a great person
My best
😄👍🎼
