Mains power lines running overhead make magnetic fields at 50/60 hertz….

 

I lived near Barcelona, Spain, for almost two years.  The local trains used 
overhead lines.  The stations used color CRT displays for train info.  You 
could tell when a train was arriving as the display would distort (you couldn’t 
decipher the display) proportional to the current in the overhead line.  When 
the train stopped, the display was normal again.
