Yes, the real world trains can be very dangerous - - especially when not enough money is invested in the infrastructure. Another horrible accident today: 

Mother, son (4) and niece (4) dead in a train crash

The level crossing in Bolfan, Varaždin County, northern Croatia, where a 27-year-old woman and two four-year-old children were killed after a train collided with a car, was not marked with sound-light signalling and has not level-crossing barriers (there is only a STOP sign and a railway crossing sign).

The accident happened this morning at 9:30 a.m. when a 27-year-old woman was driving a car from the direction of the town of Sveti Petar. Arriving at the mentioned crossing, she did not stop in front of it and make sure that there is no train coming along the track. Because of this, her vehicle was hit by a local passenger train travelling on the route Koprivnica - Varaždin.

The driver of the car and a four-year-old boy from the vehicle were killed in the collision, while two passengers, a 28-year-old man and a four-year-old girl, were injured and transported to the Koprivnica General Hospital. The girl died of her injuries in the hospital at 10:35 a.m.
