Used to live two blocks from BNSF's mainline in Kent, Wa. With all the coal trains and oil trains, it'd feel like a 3.0 quake everytime!
Just like in "Jurassic Park", my water cup would always start to show ripples in it!

I’ve heard that long ...steel rails, power lines, steel pipes (Oil and Water) act as conducive pathways for heat and electricity drawn from the earth’s core to the atmosphere. Hot spots in California and elsewhere occur near these areas and we’re increasingly seeing ground to sky lightening (Which used to be quite rare). BTW; The sky is falling and you need to sell me your Z scale brass!!!🙂

When I was in Barcelona several years back, the restoration project of the historic La Segrada Familia was broadsided by the decision to place the high-speed rail line and station underground near the corner. The majestically height cathedral is a clay-sandstone structure. It took them nearly a century to attain the funds to rebuild it to it's original form (after early reigns had lowered along with earthquakes). The vibrations form the then present rail station (several blocks way) could be sensed on the current seismometers being used on the current restruction (to prevent immanent issues).
