I'm not aware of any direct equivalent of "nautical" for railways. However, in the context of "A _____-themed room", there is nothing wrong with using a noun. "A train/railway/railroad-themed room" is the natural way of expressing the concept you're looking for. In general, when you need an adjective, a noun will do just fine: there's nothing wrong with talking about, say, "a football book" and the same goes for train/railway/railroad.
