I always plan to arrive at the airport 3 hours before a flight as that is what’s specified in my travel insurance, and I take a screenshot of the travel plans I intend to do. That way even if I end up on a slightly later journey I can evidence my plans and the insurance company will have a hard time arguing about the 3 hour rule stated in my policy.
Fortunately, I’ve only ever been in the cancelled train situation once. Jumped the check in queue and got checked in with 1 min to spare. It’s not fun at all, glad you made it!
