My apartment in Japan was right next to train trcks too, but being out in the countryside, the train went by every 20-30 minutes from 5 AM until midnight. But it shook the whole building and rattled the single-pane sliding glass door to the balcony, making a bigger racket than my alarm clock did! I learned to sleep through it after about a month, but my problem then was that I'd also sleep through my alarm clock...

He can try to ask for another place and explain the situation, but there may not be another place available.
