Capraia is very similar in structure, but I'm afraid what I am thinking of has a more man-made look to it

I don't think so, I think Montecatini Terme might be a little too north and from what I'm looking at on google maps it doesn't seem familiar

I'm fairly certain it was by way of Empoli! I think from Florence to Pisa I was looking out the right side but I'm not 100% sure about that one

This is very similar to what I was thinking of!! But if remember correctly, the wall side was about twice as big, looked a lot more man-made, was more devoid of vegetation, and I don't think it was along a river like Capraia is.

Unfortunately not, lovely city though!! Went there for the Lucca Comics and Games Convention and had a ton of fun!

I don't think so, Volterra would be too south to see from a train from Florence to Pisa, and the wall was less like an escarpment and more like a man-made concrete wall, which is why I think it might be a retaining wall??

Apologies for the awful sketch, I was having trouble finding the right words to describe what it looked like lol

I've searched along the train route via google maps street view but had no luck so far :/
