I actually believe it's simply about toking up and the thoughts and visualizations that follow.

To "ride the train" meant to be simply smoking Marijuana. It's used by many lyricists as well as people of time to refer to getting high.

I don't think they literally took a train to Marrakesh or Casablanca...I'm pretty sure that these were strains or varieties of pot that they were into at that time when Moroccan Marijuana was particularly popular.
