What Elmer has to tell about
"West Bound Freight"
:
The Song Westbound Freight Train. I Was A Teenage Hobo, The Depression Was On & I Rode The Trains All Over Western Canada Looking For Work Of Any Kind.It Was On One Of These Trips That I Happened To Be In A boxcar Where This Very Old Hobo Was lying On The Floor Where His Friend Was Trying To give Him Some Water. I Had Part Of A Sandwich That I Was Saving For Later & Offered It To Him. But His Friend Told Me He Was Dying & Could Not Take Any Food. Many Years Later I Wrote The Song Westbound Freight Train, From That Experience. Thank You Joyce For All You Have Done For My Son & Me. Elmer Pollon (You Are The Greatest).:
“Sadly Elmer Pollon passed away on the 17 th of January 2007 he will always be remembered as a great singer/songwriter, and be sadly missed by many people around the world. I would appreciate it if DJ’s would play this song as a personal request from me for someone that I loved and respected.
