"Night Train" is an instrumental R&B standard; a popular vocal version was recorded by James Brown in 1962.

The song is featured during the opening number on episode 206 of The Muppet Show. As Crazy Harry and a group of Whatnot soldiers participate in a bout of target practice with a cannon, they hit practically everything onstage except for the bullseye, eventually blowing a hole in the theater wall next to Statler and Waldorf's box.
