Por que é masculine?

Trains is masculine in French. While the word does derive from Old French "train" (meaning a procession or retinue), the etymology and gender assignment are not clearly connected through the mechanism described. The masculine gender is simply an inherent property of this noun in French, as with many common nouns whose gender must be learned as part of vocabulary acquisition rather than derived from predictable etymological rules.
