"City of New Orleans" was written and first performed by Steve Goodman in 1970, and later recorded by Arlo Guthrie and others, notably Johnny Cash, John Denver and Willie Nelson. The lyrics trace the train's route from Chicago to New Orleans along the Illinois Central line (and later taken over by Amtrak). The City of New Orleans still makes the run between the two cities, but service was interrupted for 14 months after Katrina.

OK. The Wabash Cannon Ball is a mythical train (like the fabled "Flying Dutchman" but The Wabash Rail line was very real...check the web... It went from Michigan through Indiand , Ohio ect to Missouri and Tennessee where they changed lines to continue to the Delta. Thanks for responding, YankeeRebelSon

Do you have a source for that? Cause I believe you're wrong. And as the above person stated this song isn't even about Katrina, it's about a dying American industry.

This song has nothing to do with Katrina. It was written when Gary, Indiana was a booming steel town. I actually walked along some of the tracks where the "Wabash Cannon Ball" used to run all the way from the shores of Lake Michigan to the Delta of New Orleans. It's a story of days long gone...a different world

"The vast majority of foreign aid actually was accepted" Huh? Less than 5% of what was pledged was accepted. "But if you choose to rebuild homes in disaster prone areas, why should you get extra tax dollars," Tax dollars aren't even needed. There's 800 BILLION in foreign that was never accepted. And, if 80% of the N.O. levy budget hadn't been diverted to Iraq, the levies may not have failed and the devastation would have been much less.

The vast majority of foreign aid actually was accepted (just not from Cuba/Venezeula). And the Bush admin has sought well over a $100 billion for reconstruction.  But if you choose to rebuild homes in disaster prone areas, why should you get extra tax dollars, on top of the tons of private charity? For the most part they really should be rebuilding on their own.
