 Apparently not released in December 1955. The Chess Label Part II (1953-1955) gives December 20, 1955 as recording date for both sides and January 1956 as release date, and this goes together well with the trade magazine reviews (Billboard Jan 28, 1956 and Cash Box Feb 4, 1956).
[Edit: release date corrected.]

 Review
Chuck carries "Down Bound Train" very well with lots of effective drama both lyrically and instrumentally. It's a very old folk song which had many verses. Really quite a masterpiece but maybe a rather adult theme for the kids. Top side is a great amusing song but I've seen the comment somewhere that its moderate success may have been because it was more bluesy
