Trains are already as “self driving” as they can safely be and with how many people a train can move compared to how few people need to manage one, there’s already not much reason to go fully automate.

Denmark’s metro’s are fully automated and it’s amazing.
Automation is good, there’s just a teething period.
We mostly automated sewing and dishwashing which put people out of jobs, but in the long term it’s been good

I can sit in front in a “fake cockpit” and look out the front window.
But more importantly they run like clockwork, there’s often a new metro every 7min they arrive and leave exactly when scheduled.
I’m sure they also save money
