Dreams About Trains

To dream of a train indicates that you feel events in life are out of control.

The train of life captures our imagination, especially in our dream state. The whiff of coal smoke, the crowded platform, and the whistle in the distance this is a dream of anticipation of your journey ahead. It is an exciting time for you from a spiritual perspective. Life is like a big long train journey you can get whatever stop you want, sometimes it's not what you have anticipated and sometimes it is. Trains themselves are deep emotions to our own souls. The attractions of fire, steam, and the fascination of technology that encapsulates the dream meaning can inspire us to move forward in our life and open up to possibilities. There are many different types of train dreams that you may experience, it could simply be that you see yourself boarding a train in your dream or perhaps you travel along riding one. The type of train "dream scene" is also arguably important. The building of railways across the world has opened up whole countries and continents that create nations allowing us all to interconnect and form a spiritual symbolism of union.

Quick meaning of a train dream

What kind of train appeared in your dream?

Trains in dreams can appear either as those that transport passengers or freight. Seeing railroads in a dream can indicate that you are trying to control the conditions around you, in life it is hard to have some measure of control about how we feel for others. In essence, we are conditional observers of life and we do not want you to let our own observation produce successful results. The waiting time in your dream for a train is a reflection of vicious traction responding to your focus on your own satisfaction, as the dream unfolds and you indeed catch a train and go on a journey this dream can indicate your own appreciation of the idea of re-evaluating aspects in your life.

What does the symbol of a train mean in a dream?

The train symbolizes your power in life, much like your control over others and this dream can be an indication of how you approach situations. It is important to actually try to remember the details in the dream. If you can see passengers on the train then the dream was focused on your own power in a financial sense. It means you feel that you are being pulled and pushed in different directions.

Your train dream is a reflection of your life and the people on your journey. There is a famous analogy I want to share with you right now by John Passaro. Passaro basically states that our life is like a train, that everyone seems to be heading in the same direction, and that people can get off the train when they wish, but their belief keeps them heading for their own destiny and they will get off at the right stop during the journey. When people do get off your train, this is a reflection on them and you should not look back. In essence, you cannot force people to be with you. You cannot raise the dead. It means that when important people depart your train don't hold onto anger or a grudge, heed the passengers that were traveling with you.

Forgive them as your journey will keep on going and people will get on and off your train. In dreams, the train is your journey, your own destination. We are all onboard people's trains and may choose to depart. This dream is extremely good when we need to re-evaluate coming together for the purpose of completing our tasks in life. In life we call for no desire to excel at times, maybe right now you are enjoying the natural extension of your own being. Dreaming of a negative train dream can indicate that you are clarifying the design in your life, and you realize that you are in fact the creator of your own life. Maybe you imagine what life can be like when you achieve what you really want, and this is invigorating to realize that you create your own destiny. A train crash in a dream can mean that you blame someone else for things that go wrong in life, try to observe things. 

What is the meaning of seeing a train in a dream?

A dream of seeing an out-of-control train indicates that your power is being controlled. Trains generally mean that life problems are to be solved easily. The speed of the train can indicate possible problems in one’s life. To keep missing fast trains indicates that you are trying to achieve something in life. It points to trying to reach the impossible. If the train is old-fashioned, such as a steam train then people will likely ask you a number of favors. The fact that the steam train is speeding is connected to the haste of these people. To miss a train that is parked at the station and leaves before you are able to get on it indicates that a person will mention a great opportunity that may pass you by.

To be the driver on a train suggests that you will need to be more in control going forward in matters related to the heart. To travel on a train which is going too fast suggests that you may have to lower yourself to make sure you finally get what you want to achieve. This can mean trying to find the time to do well on an important project or forgiving someone else. If the train is traveling without a track at the bottom and going fast this can suggest that people will be seeing you differently than you actually are. To see a train going into a tunnel can signify a false positive. Something in life may look great but in fact, it is not as good as you first thought.

To dream of a train that has sleeping compartments indicates that you are going to have a long power struggle with someone in authority. To dream of being on a foreign train suggests that you need to try to curb your spending. Losing a train ticket in a dream suggests that you are worried about a problem that will go away with time.

Being in charge of the train means that you wish to control other people’s lives too much. If you see a station or pass one on the train then this can mean that you will soon have an important trip to take. A freight train is a symbol of business. To dream of the freight train announces that things in life will get better and success will be yours. If the freight train crosses water (such as the channel) then international business affairs will be prosperous. To dream of the channel tunnel or a train that crosses countries or water suggests that someone will tell you something in confidence. It is important to keep a secret. If the train goes the wrong way in one’s dream this means that there will be a problem that will have nothing to do with you but may impact others.

What do dreams about train stations mean? 

Dreaming of a train station has many aspects from a spiritual dream perspective. This is about the creation of your life, your road, goals, patience, and influences in life. The train station is about delivering people cheaply from A to B, in spiritual terms it is about delivering your goals in life. Train stations in dreams should capture your imagination of how you structure your life. Let's think about it, train stations in dreams are about waiting for something important to happen in life, just like waiting for a train. The context in the dream of a train station plays an important role in dream interpretation. A busy, bustling, stimulating train environment (that is in constant movement) indicates spiritually that you are feeling overwhelmed at the moment. The more stimulating, colorful, and warmer the dream appears the busier your life will become. 

Train stations always include platforms. Perhaps you saw the entire platform during the dream, or even the platform was lit or certain parts of the station. If you dream the train was already waiting at the platform concerned at its time of departure this dream means that you may feel that your desire in the process of becoming who you wish is manifesting. Dreaming of other passengers waiting with you at a train station can mean that you need to develop the habit of being happy to get what you want from life. Are you always yearning for something? But have not yet achieved what you want due to doubts? 

What do dreams about train tracks mean? 

Train tracks in a dream or railroad tracks can indicate the track of your life and the goals that you have. This can be associated with how you can patiently wait for something that you need in life. We all want to be joyously full of force and have clear goals towards the things we really "want" because the components of the universe are working in the background. Each track in your dream is a phase in life, of how you must focus on your own mapped out goals to achieve in life.

Crossing a railroad or track in a dream can suggest that things are going to work in your favor. To see broken rail tracks in dreams is a message from your spirit guides that it is a good idea to take ownership of what is happening to you. Remember we are in charge of our own problems. Life can appear to be a constant struggle to balance between positive and negative programming in our own desires. This happens in all situations. Acceptance and the removal of judgment will help you to be proactive in your response to situations.

Two people may think they are right, and they might be, but they only have their own perspectives. This dream is telling you to stay away from judgment, which will help you to see problems from your own perspective. There is always something to learn in life. Our inner voice can assist us in identifying the root cause and help us move on.

A train crash in one’s dream is a rather disturbing experience and can even turn into a nightmare. The dream is connected to distant friends and it can suggest that others will give you problems in life. If you could see dead people as a result of the train crash then this can suggest that a friend that is close to you will ask for help.

The dream of a train deals with how we navigate our life and more importantly karma. The trains are connected to our own personal struggles and long-term challenges in our life. Remember to express your gratitude when you see a train in your dream because of the cycles of life change and with that comes the difficulty to keep things under control. If things in life have not been smooth sailing recently then a dream of a train often appears.

This is something that you are bound to work towards if you see yourself traveling on a train. if the journey of the train is smooth, this is a dream of great luck ahead. However, if the journey was negative in any way, it means that you may be on the wrong train alternatively you missed it. Then this can indicate a new start on the horizon. 

Maybe you feel lonely if you are alone on the train, which is a reflection of your feelings in an unhappy relationship with someone in your waking life. The distant landmarks on the horizon show the emotional distance you have to others, it is a symbol of your thoughts.

Being hit by a train can be a traumatic nightmare-induced dream. Any dream involving injuries of any description or even death can symbolize transformation. Seeing somebody else being hit by a train can indicate that there is going to be a delay in a situation going forward. Traveling by train in real life can seem the safest way to conduct a journey. Today's trains are obviously much faster than early trains, and if you dream of accidents resulting in fatalities then this dream is about changing situations in life. Obviously, there have been hundreds if not thousands of fatal accidents throughout the world and in most cases, these are trains that travel at a high speed but they are not necessarily the cause of the accident. 

Perhaps you dreamt that somebody is tied to a train track, run over by a train although a train crashes into you. Dreams such as these occurring can often cause us pain and sleeplessness in waking life. You may need to ask yourself whether you want to think more positively and whether you can override your own anxiety. First of all, let go of the fear that the train hitting you (or somebody else) and translate this into what you need to learn from this dream. I'm not saying that the dream should be mistaken for something bad, generally, this dream is about the symbolic subject of something just “hitting” you in life. Perhaps there is a blockage around the area of life that you are currently embarking on. The dream of a train hitting or crippling you can indicate that you need to release the fear of failing before you begin. The instinct of the dream being hit is about a new journey unself-consciously. It presents the new release of limiting factors that can keep you from being stagnant in life.

Standing at a platform can mean there's going to be a new journey awaiting, you must be brave and take the steps that you need in order to progress yourself. Remember that your higher self is part of what makes you feel like a limitless soul.

There is something that you need to know, you can make your life so much more different, so much more inspiring and challenging if you just change your mindset in order to do so. This dream is encouraging you to clear out the attic that you have in your mind and throw away the clutter. Getting on a train means a new phase is coming and that it is not a time to feel anxious, worthless, or even afraid. What if you cannot get off the train? Maybe the train is a runaway train and out of control. If this is the case, the dream is asking you to take back control of your life.

There appears to be a lot of power in the dream and in the steam. Steam pumping from the train indicates the energy is electric that surrounds you at the moment.

Ask yourself why you have a dream about the train (journey of your life) running yourself or someone else over. The symbolism in your dreams will reflect on you and your life.

If you are on a train that is hijacked (or simply out of control) then this means that disharmony will most likely surface in your current relationships. Perhaps it is simply to think that other people always have the problem, the dream is trying to force you to ask yourself is a problem with you or them.

What does it mean if a train is unable to break and is running away out of control?

If we think about the train it is a very powerful piece of machinery. Early trains often used hand brakes as opposed to them being automatic. If the brakes have an issue in the train dream then this could suggest the need to put a break on something in your life. This could be a relationship or goal. I'm not necessarily saying that you need to remove people from your life you just need a break. You need to be on your own, a bit like the hermit on the tarot card. It's time to retreat in order for you to find peace.

Summary - dream about trains

In Buddhism there are many important spiritual messages, such as that we should not be too attached to things in life and that we need to appreciate what happens in our life right now. People pass, we get old, we move on and these are all part of our train journey. If we look at Dahmmaphada it states that we need to desire the right things in life. The train in dreams is positive, this is how you navigate life. How one desires and moves forward on the journey of life. We all desire a certain amount of love and it is important to make sure that we need to train our minds and open ourselves up to other people's actions. In summary, think about how you can make things in life.
