A common misconception is that the Automobile is a predator of the Train, this however is incorrect as the car kills trains not by hunting and devouring them but rather by poisoning them. Cars simply are a poisonous creature which indirectly kill trains when a train attempts to eat one. There is of course the issue of how the invasiveness of the car endangers trains in native habitats but in general car and train populations should be kept separate for the sake of biodiversity and the survival of the train in their more endangered state
