Based on personal experience, (family cattle ranch with a small bison herd), "buffalo" (more accurately, "bison"), cattle and horses have no problem crossing railroad tracks (and no, we did not have to "train" them to do it).

Bison herds were a major issue for the early trans-continental railroads (e.g. "...Union Pacific responded by increasing security and by hiring marksmen to kill Bison (commonly known as American buffalo) which were both a physical threat to trains and the primary food source for the Plains Indians.")

Not sure where the original poster got his information, but he clearly has no experience with horses or cattle/bison.

***INCORRECT*** Yes but only if they are trained to do so. Their depth perception makes them think they are stepping off into an abyss. Horses are the same way. ***INCORRECT***
