Its actually more common, I believe, for people to become disoriented from the motion of the train and fall into them - their inner ear and brain get confused because the scenery is moving but they aren't. I don't think the C-Train moves anywhere near fast enough for people to get sucked in.

On another note, people need to realize they shouldn't even be relying on lights and bells to announce the presence of a train. The railroad has an old saying, "train time is anytime" - always assume there is a train nearby if you are approaching tracks.
