The locomotive was painted to resemble Air Force One, but George H.W. Bush joked that if it had been around during his presidency, he may have preferred to ride the rails rather than take to the skies. Bush's casket will depart for Joint Base Andrews and then return to Texas. The Oak Ridge Boys recalled performing for him for decades and joked that Bush "fancied himself to be a good bass singer". They paused steps from Bush's casket for a minute, with Trump saluting and Melania Trump placing her hand over her heart, before they quietly walked away.

Allen says the band is honored to keep its promise to Bush to perform at his funeral.

"We introduced Sully to all the different pet dogs there on the compound, and all the family met the dog". He is the Texas land commissioner.

George H.W. Bush died on Friday at the age of 94.

George W. Bush broke down briefly at the end of his eulogy while invoking the daughter his parents lost in 1953 and his mother, who died in April. The 41st president will be buried Thursday at his family plot on the presidential library grounds at Texas A&M University in College Station.

His casket is now lying in state and will remain there until Wednesday morning when it will be transferred to the National Cathedral for the funeral.
