This Wilcox poem mysteriously describes, like a riddle, a locomotive as if it's a living being of flesh and blood. Parr's setting is perfect to create and hold interest of young singers using a minor key, dynamic contrast, and interesting, rhythmic writing. A solid teaching and performance piece for any time of year.
