Find me a rail replacement bus (it says Rail Replacement on the blind).
A nice recent one from the GOBLIN.
A train in service, captured whilst the Streetview car is travelling across an open level crossing. i.e A head/rear on view of the train.

No, as the streetview car is not on the crossing when the photo is taken, nor is the photo a head/rear on view of the train (tram).
Though I would accept a tram in the correct situation.

You can definitely see the fire engine (2 of them in fact) through the window, so I say it should probably count.
