The Leaving Trains were an American indie rock band from Los Angeles, California. The Leaving Trains were founded in 1980 by singer "Falling" James Moreland, and the band became known for high-energy if chaotic performances that earned comparisons to The Replacements. The Leaving Trains released a total of ten albums, mostly on SST Records, and Moreland became known for cross dressing in traditionally female clothing and cosmetics, before coming out as a transgender woman but still using the name James. The band broke up in about 2001.
