I'd imagine the people wouldn't want to destroy their own infrastructure to stop the train. Though they could rebuild, maybe the people felt that it'd hurt them more than the Japanese?

And maybe the Korean people were taking pot shots at trains before they were armoured (which again, wouldn't damage their infrastructure).

All just speculation here though.
