well 'tochuu' stands for in the middle of something or during, an example is 'shobai no tochuu' where shoubai means business (similar to shounin merchant) so in the middle of business. In fact in episode 10 when Lawrence goes to meet the head of the Loewen trade union he said the same thing.

'tabi' is a journey or trip(also means a type of Japanese sock but in context it means a journey)

sooo in the end 'tabi no tochuu' directly translates to,
*drum roll*
middle of journey or journey's middle or during a journey.
Thanks for this! I think understanding the title helps me understand the music better. The happy intro in full version, signifies the exciting start of a journey, most of the rest is about the middle, and the repetitive pleading towards the end is about not wanting the journey to end...
