Rain has no impact on the tracks, but some trains may slip or slide because of rain, so the train may go slower for safety. The metal rails expand in high heat and contract in the cold. In the heat, this expansion can distort the rails enough that a train can no longer pass over them at all. In extreme cold, the rails can be stressed beyond their limits, and may break simply from the cold. Snow and ice has no effect on the rails, but the tracks include "switches" that enable a train to go from one track to another - these can become frozen in many different ways such that a train can no longer change tracks, or, may not even be able to go over that section of track at all.

Would it be possible to build a train track that floats on water?
Sure, make the train tracks from materials that (in total) are lighter (less dense) than water. Presumably you want the train tracks to support a train as well; in that case, the weight of a certain piece of train tracks, plus the total weight of the train, should be less than the weight of the water displaced by the train tracks.
Why do people walk on the train tracks?
People walk on train tracks for different reasons. Some people walk on tracks because it's a shorter distance to get where they are going.
