trains of logic
Hello ! I have another question: What does "trains of logic" mean in the sentence below?
"Magicians use such sensory illusions in their tricks, but they also heavily use cognitive illusions, manipulating people’s attention, trains of logic and even memory. "
Thanks!

A train of thought, is a logical progression through a series of ideas
I think the writer is mixing metaphors, saying that they use logic, to progress people through a series of ideas, in order to have the person reach a conclusion that they didn't believe possible (magic!)
