The Night Train®

Morning all! We’re getting’ this week’s upload done nice and early so you can have the perfect soundtrack to the start of the week. For this show, we’ve gone easy on the “In memorium” songs and heavy on the “Anniversary Cuts”. One day soon we’ll just do a normal show. We promise. To experience the show (sorta) live n direct.. tune into Sheffield Live, Sundays 9pm-11pm on 93.2FM, via the TuneIn Rad...

Due to reasons, there wasn't a show this week. As you know, we don't like to leave the Listen Again Crew without 2hrs of music to enjoy so we thought we'd upload this classic episode from 2020. We'll (hopefully) be back next week with tales of Steve stickering in Suffolk, bin chat and more! ------------------------------------------------------------ Any excuse to produce a themed show... it's 30...

It was teased last week and this week we've done it. Sadly, while we were off the air for 6 weeks quite a few great artists died. We've taken this week to celebrate their work. Some of them get a song, some of them get a few songs. It's never enough but it's the best we can do. If you like any of the artists mentioned, we implore you to get into their back-catalogue and enjoy some fantastic music....

We managed it. The stars have aligned and what are about to listen to is the sound of two people bumbling their way through 120mins of community radio. Yes, as it’s a pre-record we could quite easily make it a slick affair. Also, we did edit it a bit. Can you imagine how bad the stuff was that we took out?!? This week there’s new bits, old bits, bits we’ve been listening to on our summer break and...

Mornin' all... No show again this week so we're back in the crates for another "classic" episode. We're scheduling this to drop on Monday so it may or may not work. ------------------------------------------ It maybe a little late, but here is my tribute show to the anniversary of the birth of hip-hop (11th August 1973). First hour contains twelve classic Kool Herc records that most likely would h...

Mornin' all. For those that saw on the socials, we didn't do a show yesterday. Powlo was on DJ duties so we didn't have time for a pre-record and nobody wants a Steve Solo Show. Instead, for the podcast crew, we're re-upping our Jamaican Independence Day Special from 2017. Hopefully, we'll be back this week with a new show but if we don't, we'll just find another classic show from the archives. Pe...

Here at TNT Towers, we love nothing more than a long and arduous task that provides little reward* and shameless self promotion. A few months back, Paul decided to upload the Thirsty Ear mixes they used to give out at their monthly nights in Sheffield. We've mentioned it a few (too many) times on air. This week there wasn't a show, so instead of leavin' you with nothin', we thought we'd give you a...

Could this be the most eagerly anticipated show in Community Radio? Well... no. It's not. BUT it has been in the making for weeks, nay, months... It's The Night Train's Psych Special! We've tried to dig deep and make a show with a number of different psychadelic styles and flavours. With a little help from our friends, we think we've made a pretty decent show. Let us know if we've made a mistake o...

It’s hot. You don’t need us to tell you that. However, it does explain why this is a bit late getting uploaded. One of us is currently sweating in the attic, ripping songs for show 250, the other one of us is melting on the sofa with an overheating laptop cooking his legs. Anyway, enough about us, and more about the show! Plenty of stuff covered this week…. Footwork, drones, soul, dubstep, a few c...

Wanna hear something "funny"? This show technically didn't go out last night. The edit wasn't done in time due to Steve falling down the cellar stairs and spending Friday night in A&E. Don't worry, he's fine (some might say he's even hamming it up a bit). BONUS HILARITY: We accidentally uploaded last week's show by mistake. This should now be rectified. Thought you'd all like the show anyway,...

We know what you're thinkin'... "4th of July, those idiots will have done a hacky theme show" well... you're wrong! It's just a normal one. 2hrs of new music, old music, stuff we've played before, stuff we've forgotten we've played before and some adventurously long beds talk over. Once again, we're pleading that if you wanna help make the show more exciting, get in touch at nighttrain93.2[at]gmai...

After (kinda) takin' a week off, we're back with a new show of old music. Well, there are a couple of new things in there thanks to Steve. The rest of the show, as always, is filled with stuff we've been listening to this week. A word of warning for this show, final set of hour 2 shouldn't be listened to while operating heavy machinery. If you wanna help make the show more exciting, get in touch a...

Due to boring reasons we won't bore you with, there wasn't a live show this week. As we don't like to leave the FM Listener(s) in the lurch, we put out 2 "Classic" shows from the archives. We're only gonna upload hour one (sans chat) and save the other hour for another time we have off. Here's what we wrote about the show in 2016.... -------------------------------------------------------------- A...

We mentioned it a long time ago, now here it is! The inaugural TNT EP Special. All (well, most) songs on tonight's show were first available on an EP. We know what your'e thinking... "that's a ridiculous idea for a theme show, they've finally lost the plot". Well, in your face! We had quite a few suggestions for songs. Even better than that, the show seems to have a good flow to it! If you wanna h...

This week we take to the airwaves with a show that accidently had two themed sets! One of them has >60% of the songs with the same name. Could this be the start of something new? Who knows. This will be one of the shows that we're glad is a pre-record as we're both a bit worse for wear after spending last night celebrating Steve's birthday. If you wanna help make the show more exciting, get in...

Greetings and salutations! Sorry this is late in the day. The plan is to trick you into thinking tomorrow is actually Monday. That way when you remember it's actually Tuesday you'll be over the moon that it's only 6 sleeps until the next time we're on the air! For this show, we return with tales from afar, mix-tapes and birthdays, cover versions and plugs for other shows on the station. Wild times...

What's this?!? A TNT upload in the AM?!? Someone's up early. Normal business again this week as our two intrepid hosts play a great 2hrs of different stuff that's been going around their heads for a while. One of them over a year! The downside of the early upload is that this blurb is lacking in anything of note. If you wanna help make the show more exciting, get in touch at nighttrain93.2[at]gmai...

The strange thing about these pre-records is that technically, this file you're listening to has been "in the bag" since Saturday morning yet somehow Steve's only now gettin' around to uploading it. He's had ample time to get it uploaded yet it's still late in the day. Oh well. This week the mix is "new stuff from Paul and Steve accidentally plays 3 songs that he's heard on TV shows". To be honest...

Apologies one and all for the delayed upload! May Day has got us all over the place, thinking it’s Monday today. Thanks to those that messaged while tuned in on Sunday. We really miss doing the Bank Holiday weekend shows live. Hopefully it won’t be too long now. Music and ground covered this week is a nice mix of reggae, footwork, soul and more. We play some new old music we’ve purchased and gener...

It's the long over-due return of a guest mix on TNT! Can't remember when the last one was, possibly Steve's when he decided to do his own guest mix. Not sure that should count though. So for this proper mix, it's from our good friend, Figure Of Wax. A northern soul and an all-round party DJ. He's just started an excellent monthly radio show, Liner Notes, on Steam Radio outta MCR so thought it righ...

You know, it kinda feels like these shows are gettin' better. We're not a slick operation by any means but that's not why you tune in, right? This week sees us playing a nice blend of the old and new. Some stuff from comps, some stuff from albums, some stuff we heard on the radio and some stuff we heard on Twitter. Apologies these blurbs aren't that exciting, we're tryin' our best! If you want to...

Today has been confusing. A classic "Tuesday that feels like a Monday". This is why this blurb will be minimal. The show is great though... a classic Easter Show. That means a sweet mix of tunes and we're both a bit "loose". Get in touch nighttrain93.2[at]gmail[dot]com or  https://www.twitter.com/RadioNightTrain  on the tweets. Please do, as this means we have something to mention when w...

Around a year ago would have been the 50th anniversary of the David Mancuso throwing his 1st Love Saves The Day party at The Loft. It was the first show that fell foul of us not being allowed in the studio so it's been languishing on a HD for a year. Well, now is the time to enjoy it! Listen in wonder to tales from NYC. A fine mix of music is awaiting you. All you gotta do is press play! Get in to...

Do you know, it feels like so long since this was broadcast, can't really remember what was on the show. This means we're gonna have to listen again on a speed-run. Wonder what the show would sound like at +8. One thing we did talk about was TNT Top Trumps. Suggestions appreciated. Get in touch nighttrain93.2[at]gmail[dot]com or  https://www.twitter.com/RadioNightTrain  on the tweets. Pl...

In a break from our scheduled programming, we bring you our 1st volume of "Salute to The Sisterhood" from 2018 to celebrate International Women's Day! We've removed our waffle as the last thing this day (or any day TBH) needs is two men talkin' nonsense. As today is IWD, here are a few presenters/shows that are way better than us that you should check out... DJ Soul Sister on WWOZ https://www.wwoz...
