In Slovakia, there is a steam railway which runs right through a football ground, between the stands and the pitch!

The Čierny Hron Railway runs through the ground of Slovakian amateur team TJ Tatran Čierny Balog, even whilst matches are in progress.

Some more info on the railway:

Gisborne Airport in New Zealand has the railway running through the runway too. Signals at either end to stop trains when there are aircraft using the runway are operated from the control tower.
