Thanks. A while ago, I was using T3ED to move the track where the
train runs (couldn't do the reverse because there was no way to get to
the train itself in the editor so I had to move the *road* instead),
and had the train street running through that part. The strangest
thing was, at the end of the segment, the train would *dive through *
the road and disappear under it! Very funny to look at. I would also
use the cheat code that enables you to blow out the tires of the car
in front of you, and I would spend time blowing out all of the cars'
tires and watch the train ram them. Yes, I really am that twisted. >:)

Was the train crossing or street running?

That 4WD racing game... 4x4 Evo. One of the tracks has a train... and a
train bridge.
If you time it right, you can cut across the bridge and make a major
shortcut. If not...

I think there's also a similar track in Monster Truck Madness, same
developer.

It still moves, but with a good run you can beat it in the left lane.
On a moderate run, you can take the jump behind the engine.

The train is moving on the PC version, here is a clip from a video I
made of NFS Underground 1 career mode:

For anyone (both of you) interested, here is Underground 1 career mode
condensed into an 11 minute video, cutscenes and highlights of events.
If you haven't seen Underground 1 before the graphics are pretty nice.
