A HEADY mix of jazz and steam trains is on the cards at Swindon's Steam railway museum.

From 7pm tomorrow, curator Tim Bryan is hosting a talk on how the railroad influenced generations of American blues, jazz and swing musicians.

He is illustrating the event with excerpts from Count Basie, Duke Ellington and Glenn Miller, in celebration of Black History Month.
