A train journey in a dream marks the mind working through the momentum of a life path that is already moving. Events pull the dreamer along a track that has already been set, and the progress carries its own momentum.
The dream functions to help the dreamer observe the transition between different stages of an ongoing process. It allows for a mental review of how much control is held over the speed of progress and how much is surrendered to the existing rhythm of circumstances. The focus is on the continuity of a trajectory that is currently being navigated.
The movement may feel irreversible, creating a weight of having no way to turn back. The dreamer finds a way to acknowledge the current pace of things without the need to alter the rails.
A train ride in a dream shifts the focus from the path itself to the experience of the passage, adding a layer of personal awareness regarding the duration of a current phase. The dreamer feels the stretch of the minutes as the scenery moves past.

Owen SterlingInterpreter interprets your dreams
Many people believe a frightening dream announces something, when more often the brain was simply sorting the days just before it. During the night the mind files what was carried over from recent hours, and what gets filed loudest is what was felt most. A rough night leaves a residue by morning that fades with daylight. Nothing was sent. The sleeper was working, and the work is done.
