I didn’t knew Railway so with this misleading headline I thought a Google Cloud data centre was being built in the way of a railroad. That’d been a funny story to read..

An elevated railroad once ran through one end of what is now a Google-owned building (Chelsea Market in Manhattan). It's now part of the High Line elevated pedestrian park.
How is the title misleading?
"Railway Blocked by Google Cloud"

If you don't happen to know that "Railway" is referring to a company, then you might reasonably read that as "a GCP outage caused issues in the train network somewhere".
