Very common to name trains and even other transportation modes for some fast moving thing. The Wabash was far from the only "Cannonball".

Also common to name scheduled trains as to their priority on the track. So the Super Chief had authority to have other trains, even a "chief", shunted off the line to let it pass. Others might have military ranks.

I've been conditioned to expect them to say "the program is a starting" after they sing turn your radio on.

Oh! Becky! Gentleman Joe McGasko played a track by the Hilltoppers and Jimmy Sacca (Kentucky, 1957), and he and I were both pretty sure that Thurl is also featured in it. Does that check out?
