I think the answer is that they can see it because they are magical
people and it is a magical train. It's the same as with the Leaky
Caulron. There it is, right there between the bookstore and record
shops on Charing Cross Road, just a block or two north of Chinatown,
but the poor muggles are too caught up in there mundane existance to
notice it.
The train is also magical in the same sense as the Knight Bus. It
doesn't run into and isn't seen by other trains, the same way that the
Knight Bus doesn't run into houses or cars, and is not seen.
IT'S MAGIC.
