Secret4 : When you reach the graveyard outside the Morningside funeral home, you'll be able to see an object on top of the grey tomb-like structure on the right of the room. Leap onto a tombstone and then leap onto the gate and then move to the top of the building and collect your prize.

Super Secret - This is in the final room of the level, the top half of the wall which you see on the right on this picture is fake. You can walk through the top half of the wall and enter the secret chamber. The problem is that you can't jump high enough to reach the secret chamber, so it would be wisest to lure the zombie in the previous room down into this area and then jump on his head and then leap into this hole. This secret can't be seen on the map either, so this is a real tricky one, but the rewards more than justify the efforts.

The very first one you enter is the one you're looking for. Break the window on the left of the compartment and jump out of the train!
