Train on map?

Why isn't the train on the map. Would be nice to see where it is and not have to chase it down. Also if I buy a ticket to the train, I still have to wait for it to come. Don't know for how long as I don't know where it is. Am I missing something or?

It would be nice to see it on the main map....give this a go, go to any where there is a place to sleep, including camping out in the wilderness use the sleep option and choose morning or noon, wake up pack up and head to the nearest train station? hope this helps?😀

The reason they don't show on the map is because they don't work the same was as RDR1.

In RDR1 there were just two trains which ran on a loop, stopping at each station. You could choose whether to get on or off but that was it, two trains, running on a loop.

In RDR2, however, you can use them to fast travel. Why this is important is this – when you do that, a new train spawns just for you and takes you to your destination. As they are spawnable and not just single instances on the map, I guess its not possible to have them show, as it would look weird having them spawn here and there.

Well that's just it. Even that I try to fast travel with a train (buying a ticket). No train spawns for me, I still have to wait for it to show up

Fast travel fades out immediately and puts you on a train. Not sure why yours doesn't do that? Do you walk out onto the platform and get on the train?
