After a commercial break, Marty said, "Welcome back. The Marty Stuart Show is sponsored by the great state of Mississippi. Mississippi is regarded as the birthplace of America's music. And throughout the state, you'll find nearly 200 historical stops along the Blues and Country Music Trails that honor some of the royal names and places concerning those musical genres. I encourage you to come to the Magnolia state and be a part of the sights and sounds that helped to bring our music to life." A train whistle blows. Marty continues, "Like that one right there. Listen. Can ya hear it? it's a pretty sound to me. That's the ghost train. A legend in the Mississippi woods. You know the words. 'Black steel bound for nowhere. Ghost train four-oh-ten." There she goes. Through Kosciusko past bluesman Charlie Musslewhite's trail marker. A little further down the line in Attala County, there it is. right there on the left. Weeds growin' up around it now. Mr. Coleman Aikens 1968 Cadillac sedan in which he used to drive his Dixie Four singers to their gospel meetings. Travelin' on down into Neshoba County through Burnside, Mississippi, past some of the prettiest cotton fields you'll ever see. Listen to that train's wildcat whistle. Lord have mercy. Ghost train rollin' right into the depot at the bottom of Depot Hill, Philadelphia, Mississippi. The Depot now serves as the Visitor's Center considered to be stop number one in Philadelphia. You'll find some nice people there to advise you on all the good things to do in Philadelphia. So, how 'bout a hand for dear ole Mississippi, the Blues Trail, the ghost train, and all of our friends in Philadelphia, Mississippi. Ghost Train Four-Oh-Ten. And ladies and gentlemen, it is indeed a privilege to present to you the Sultan of Goodlettsville, the most popular man in country music, the ole Tennessee Slicker, Leroy Troy. Hello, Leroy. Greetings." 
Leroy: "Greetings." 
Marty said, "Leroy Troy, everybody. That's a fine job, Mr. Boswell." Eddie said, "Thanks so much, Leroy Troy. You're singin' some of the biggest words I've ever heard him use on that one right there. Well, let's get over to Marty Stuart with somethin' real special right now." Marty said, "Thank you, Eddie Stubbs. When it's all said and done, the greatest songwriters will be the ones we love the most. And one of the most precious of all was Miss Dottie Rambo. Honored to be holdin' Miss Dottie Rambo's guitar. This guitar wrote a lot of songs. It was a part of a lot of songs that changed a lot of lives.And bigger than her guitar is Buck and Dottie's youngin' Miss Reba, along with Mr. Dony McGuire, Israel and Destiny. Would you please make welcome Rambo McGuire. We're so honored to have you guys. Thank you, Reba. Hello Dony. Hello Destiny. It's nice to have this alongside of us today." Reba said, "It's awesome. You know mother would have loved you holdin' it probably more than anybody in this world." Marty said, "Well I loved her very much. Sure would be happy if you'd sing us a Dottie Rambo song." Whatya think?" Reba said, "Absolutely." Marty said, "How 'bout a hand for Rambo McGuire, ladies and gentlemen."
