You could argue that a space elevator is a space train.

Presumably, given that you have the technology to lay space tracks, a civilization could time the 2-way construction so that both ends would meet in the middle. The bigger problem is that no 2 objects maintain the same distance from each other. Even our moon's orbital distance fluctuates.

Like, in fiction

Because "Space is an Ocean".

But there's at least a few space trains. Which are occasionally Space Orient Expresses.
