Unless, of course, you wat to make sure there's not another train on the same track or siding. Have you ever seen an overpass for trains, like you see for automobiles?
Thanks for that.
Some folks gotta get out more.
Knowing your location tells you nothing about the location of another train. Train tracks are well instrumented, and keeping trains from colliding is a dispatch job, not a navigator’s.

... or youre operating a train that lays its own track.
