Add to this that the child is also made entirely of rubber and could easily withstand the train's impact and experience no measurable hardship. However, the impact of Superman halting the train caused wreckage to fly all over the place and damage the surrounding infrastructure.... which in this case is a metaphor for literal fucking infrastructure.

And killed the driver (who I think is called and engineer but I'm not sure and I'm not going to look it up because I don't feel like but even though it would take me less time to actually check than to write this explanation but to hell with it) who represents the middle class.

Also add that the child is slipping a stack of Benjamins into Supermans trunks.

Honestly switching the places of the boy and Superman would probably work.
