Train horror games on PlayStation

Horror games where trains, rails and stations shape the fear: a last carriage at night with nowhere to step off, a subway tunnel where stopped cars hide what moves past them, tracks and tank wagons where the dead swarm in the open, and a spider train that hunts you across an island. The rails decide where you can go, and something else may be using them.
