Long Train Flexi

The Long Train Flexi was a promo give-away with the first 5.000 sales of the Walk Away single in 1984.

It was likewise included to the 7" and 12" releases, all 7" vinyls of this first edition do have silver labels, though.

The flexi is one-sided and consists of only one track that is an extended version of the song Train.

Years later in 1988, this version of the song - now titled Long Train (1984) - would be officially

released as B-Side of the Lucretia single.
