"Then, when travelling through Poland, the train hooted every couple minutes, because apparently railway crossings in that country don't have automatic boom gates, so the trains just hoot to warn cars."

Some don't, some do, but law requires the passing train to hoot when it's coming near the railway crossing regardless. I'm polish, so that's that. Sorry you didn't get enough sleep, though.
