"The Great Rock Island Route", popularized as "Wabash Cannonball" and various other titles, is a 19th century American folk song that describes the scenic beauty and predicaments of a fictional train, the Wabash Cannonball Express, as it traveled on the Great Rock Island Railroad. The song has become a country music staple and common marching band repertoire. The only train to actually bear the name was created in response to the song's popularity, with the Wabash Railroad renaming its daytime express service between Detroit and St. Louis as the Wabash Cannon Ball from 1949 until discontinuation during the formation of Amtrak in 1971.

  • The Wabash Cannonball (wortwörtliche Übersetzung : Wabash-Kanonenkugel) ist ein amerikanischer Folk-Song über einen fiktiven Eisenbahnzug entlang dem realen Fluss Wabash in den Vereinigten Staaten. Er entstand wahrscheinlich Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts. Der Song wurde erstmals 1929 durch die Carter Family aufgenommen, und 1936 auch von Roy Acuff interpretiert. Viele Hillbilly-Künstler spielten das Lied während der Großen Depression in den 1930er und 1940er Jahren. Eine deutsche Variante existiert von Ronny. Die Wabash Railroad benannte später ihren Schnellzug zwischen Detroit und St. Louis Wabash Cannonball. (de)

  • واباش كانونبول (بالإنجليزية: Wabash Cannonball)‏، والمعروف أيضًا باسم طريق جزيرة غريت روك"The Great Rock Island Route"، هي أغنية شعبية أمريكية تصف جمال المناظر الطبيعية على متن قطار يدعى واباش كانونبول أثناء رحلته على سكة حديد غريت روك آيلاند. احتفظت الأغنية بشعبيتها وكانت مضغلة بين الفنانين من مختلف الأصناف. لم يتغير لحن الأغنية، ولكن الكلمات تغيرت بين مختلف المغنين. تم نشر النوتة في بدايات العام 1882، بعنوان "The Great Rock Island Route"، ونُسبت إلى جي أيه روف. ظهرت نسخة ذات كلمات معدلة من تأليف ويليام كينت في عام 1904 تحت عنوان "Wabash Cannon Ball".
