The poem Trains is about a little child who is very fond of trains that pass under his window. He is filled with wonder seeing their shape, speed, lights and restlessness, and asks his mother about each train that passes by. the poem is therefore about different kinds of trains and his reaction on seeing them.
In the first stanza the child sees a train without any windows, which is actually a goods train, and he compares the train with that of an elephant. just as an elephant is huge, similarly the goods train moving and covering his journey in a tedious way moves in a dark shadow. Here the train is beng compared to an elephant.
In the second stanza the child again sees a passenger train, and hence this train has doors and windows, and the light inside the train looks from far, as if some shining lamps are passing the way. This train whizzes past an appears as if there is a marriage and the train moving is a procession which is bedecked and beautiful and shinning. The wheels of the train makes a rhythmic beat of music, and the child compares it with a moving wedding procession which moves in rhythm.
In the third stanza the child presents the world as sleepy and tired, a it is a hot season and everybody is down with the heat. Even the crow doesn't caw because of the heat, and the dog hangs its tongue outside being thirsty. But even in this scorching hot day, the child's amusement needs no retirement, and he watches the trains passing by continuously in that hot sunny afternoon.
The fourth stanza shows the child's obsession with the train. The child is so obsessed that, he even when he gets up in the night by sometimes hearing the rumbling of the train, he sits up on his bed in the middle of the night, rubs his eye, and looks outside the window amidst the dim light of the moon, to find the train moving on the iron roads, which looks just like a serpent.
In the final stanza the child's sympathy pours in the form of question. he ponders over the fact, that where all these trains go after all.After covering all the distances on road, crossing mighty streams and by going past the hills, the destination of these tired trains are still unknown to the child.
Hope the answer helps.
