PALINDROMES

The intended correct answer was (AMTRAK) TRAIN ROUTES. However, our research found that there are thoroughbreds with all three of those names. In addition, there is "The Song of Hiawatha" by Longfellow, "The Song of the Vermonters,1779" by Whittier, and a 2016 song "Empire Builder" by Laura Gibson. So THOROUGHBREDS and SONGS are also acceptable.
