Engine 7

Engine 7, the 2006 album by Silver, Wood & Steel, is a full-length, acoustic bluegrass CD featuring old-time music that David Rex and Anthony James Powell played at Silverwood. Finally reunited, their old friend, cohort and fiddle champ, Avery Anderson flew back home to evaluate and lace the rhythm tracks.

The story of the music goes something like this: The decision was made to record an album of acoustic music using sound effects of all the audible memories Silverwood Theme Park has to offer including: Tremors, and Timber Terror roller coasters; the steam train, Engine 7; and various other memorable sounds. Anthony then crafted custom instruments in the fashion of centennial times, including the American harp guitar and wooden banjo. Some instruments were actually constructed using salvaged mahogany wood from the train itself! Traditional and original songs were then written, arranged and recorded with themes of Victorian Old West/Americana and, even newer “Urban Acoustic.”Manufactured and marketed by Rex James Records. Made in America.
