Given the closest points between Sanus and Anima, it is entirely possible for a train route to have been built traversing the gap. I imagine the difficulties would be similar to those faced in the episode. However, there are ways to minimize that risk. A route that goes underwater a la the Chunnel between the UK and France would minimize the risk, though there are still Grimm in the ocean. What we don't know about that is if they function at deeper depths. It is possible they could even have a tunnel built under the sea floor, which could eliminate the risk of Grimm attack entirely. A bridge built at a high-enough elevation could leave them only exposed to airborne Grimm and that risk would not be particularly greater than that of other over-land routes trains take in Remnant.
