A train track runs through my hometown and my college town. I can see it from my house at home, and people are stupid. They will stop on the tracks if there is a traffic jam (locals know you NEVER do that) or the tourists will put pennies on them. We also have a bridge that goes over the river, and it used to turn, so there's a big room inside it. A kid I went to high school with was walking on it, went to jump down into the room, and got stuck. It was not pretty. I think people just don't realize that even though trains are old, they can still kill you. And they move a lot faster than you they look.
