I saw this question posted, and can't find it now. I had troubles with this, early in the game.

One of 3 easy free locomotives is given for collecting XP during a train ride. http://trainstation.wikia.com/wiki/Easy_to_get_locomotives

On the station page, click Trains (upper left), choose the locomotive icon with the arrow under it, and you'll see your dispatched trains. Click one of these, then select Train Ride. As you ride along, items will pop up, and you click on these to collect. If your screen is jerky (like mine) it helps to minimize the screen to its smallest size and choose smaller train sets.

In the early levels, each train will present 50 XP. The points collected per click depends on your skill, as each successful click collects one more point than the previous. Your next to last click will be yellow, followed by a red highlighted XP. Once you have collected the last XP, repeat the process with your next train.

Send all your trains on a 1 hour run. This gives you half an hour to collect all your trains before they reach the loading docks. Dispatch them all back to your station and you can collect them again on the return trip.

Using those tips, it's possible to complete all the XP Achievements on your way to level 20.
