[BCMA] The railroad worker and his songs record set

[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv]

It’s the first time I’ve come across this recording.

 

The Railway Labor Executives’ Association was a federation of railway brotherhoods in the US and Canada, founded in 1926 and disbanded in 1997. Several industrial labour organizations issued records in the 1950s, so I would date it to that era. We’d be interested in seeing any liner notes or indication of what songs are included; looks like something my railroading friends would enjoy!

 

There’s a decent Wikipedia article on RLEA: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Railway_Labor_Executives%27_Association
