Ok,

1) Don't go lineside at a place like that - go to a bridge or a station with a good wide angle so you can get most or all of the train in.

2) Probably need to practise holding your camera still!

3) Dunno what your camera is like, but if it's basic it won't really produce the results your looking for, i.e. sharp, no noise etc.

4) Go on a sunny day, or at least not a gloomy day like that, there is more light around so your pictures will generally be better.
