You've obviously never lived next to a railroad.
Trains can't stop. I mean, they can eventually stop, but when it comes down to it, the train is not stopping.
Trains are relatively clean compared to trucks, but they still burn crap and spew ash and smoke.
Trains are loud. That's... I really can't say it any other way. Trains. Are. Loud.

Electric trains exist, so it's pretty obvious that your rail exposure isn't as universal as you think it is. For example, all the NS trains in the Netherlands are electric and powered sustainably. https://www.ns.nl/en/about-ns/sustainability/energy/sustainable-energy.html https://www.ns.nl/en/about-ns/sustainability/energy/sustaina...
