So a lot of parks break up their themed areas with railroad. Yes, paths can go under or over currently in Planet Coaster. But in actual parks the track intersects the sidewalk and when the train approaches arms come down (or gates swing closed) and guests wait for the train to pass while usually waving at the guests riding the train. I know it would be difficult to achieve from a path perspective, but maybe its a special track piece you can lay down instead and after doing so you can connect either side to a path?
There could definitely be some management/strategy aspects to it as well. Such as, when the gates are down, it could potentially create overcrowding on the paths in really dense parks. So you have to plan accordingly with how many trains you have running, how often they intersect paths and the placement of those said intersections.
Like I said, seems like a lot of parks do it. Would love to be able to emulate that in our parks for more realism.

in a long time because it always ended up just going around the outside of the park and this way it could go through the park. That would be fun to take a train ride through the center of the FUN!
