because the wheels connect to the track to keep the train stable and to give it more power.
2 reasons;
self guiding
low friction.
Train tracks are magnetic.

Train tracks
If your car is stuck on the tracks, and a train is approaching- then YES- get OUT of the car and get off the tracks. It is not that the train engineer does not want to stop, it is that he CANNOT stop- it may take a mile or more in distance to fully stop a heavy train. You will lose the car, but you will keep your life.
Yes - and run away or toward direction train is coming from, if necessary. A train will crush the car, and may push it into other objects or plow it down the tracks, with the train taking anywhere from 500 feet to more than a mile to stop even after the collision. If you are in the car you will be severly injured or killed.
You get something 'lion' on the tracks. Its the end of the lion.
No they can't. However there are train engines that are specifically built with a Hugh rotary snow blower on the front to clear the tracks to keep the tracks clear.
You don't tie people to the train tracks. You can hogtie them and put them on the train tracks though.

Classic train tracks (two beams each side) can be removed in favour of a Maglev style track (one bar running through the middle). But essentially no due to the driver having no steering control
Yes. Train tracks are metal because if they were wooden such fast moving train wheels will cause friction on the wooden tracks, setting them on fire.
