Activate the second switch once you make it there, then proceed to pick up a few stones while on the way. The stones are very crucial for the next few steps.

Throw Stone at Third Switch

When the small train reaches this side, throw a stone at the second switch to activate it again. The obstacle will move again, allowing the player to stay hidden behind the small train.
