"At the entrance, there are several men who guard to ensure the safety of tourists. They might seem angry or upset, so please be mindful and follow their instructions regarding when to cross and enter the rail.
Across from the entrance, there are many local cafes that offer drinks and seating while waiting for the train to pass by. If you want to take a picture, please do so from a safe distance. Always prioritize your safety and remain vigilant of approaching trains, which can pass by unexpectedly and at high speeds. Be mindful of local regulations and any signs indicating restricted areas or times when photography or pedestrian access is not allowed."

"Train Street is a unique market in Vietnam. A train will come through and deliver goods. When we arrived in Hanoi, our hotel told us that Train Street is no longer open to tourists and that cops are guarding the entrance. However, we chatted with another couple who were able to watch the train go by from outside the actual market area. So if this is something you really want to see, there are ways to make it happen. "
