I'm pretty sure that Oscar's farm is actually inside the Kingdom of Mistral. Remember, the Kingdom of Mistral is a huge kingdom, and it has a lot of different climates in it. Surely the kingdom is not just cities and towns. Surely there are also rural areas.

What makes me think that Oscar's farm is inside the kingdom itself, is what Ozpin said to him in Punished:

"Greatness, hopefully. Greatness in knowing that, when the world needed help, you were the one to reach out your hand. It won't come without hardship, without sacrifice, but I know you don't want to live the rest of your life working as a farmhand in Mistral."

He said IN Mistral. We know Oscar wasn't in the City of Mistral, considering he had to take a train there. Therefore, we can assume he was in the Kingdom of Mistral.

Then, in Kuroyuri, Oscar said "Leaving home is crazy. Going to the city is crazy. Everything you've told me is completely crazy. But it doesn't feel crazy anymore." Going to "the city". He refers to the City of Mistral as merely "the city".

It also makes sense that there would be trains to the City of Mistral within the kingdom. The kingdom is controlled land with better protection against Grimm. Outside of the kingdom, the Grimm are more free to do what they do. WoR: CCT showed us imagery of Beowolves on a toppled train, so it's possible that Grimm make a habit of attacking and derailing trains. Inside the kingdom, it's easier to prevent that because the territory is more controlled and Grimm populations are smaller. This is not the case outside the kingdom, so it's probably not worth the cost to try to keep trains going outside the kingdom.
