French don't know about French toasts.
We know it, it's called pain perdu.
You call it 'lost bread'?
It use to be a way to not waste stale bread. Nowdays, it's mostly a fancy dish using freshly made brioche.

American culture is practically a turd in a box with a $99 price tag on it.
I once heard from a friend learning French that the way to say that you are in the process of doing something literally translated to 'I am on the train to [doing the thing]'. Is that correct?
I'm well on the way to writing that report, boss
Our company is on the road to developing those features
I'm on the path to forgiving you
I've lost my train of thoughts
That saying actually predates railroad trains, which were called that because a train meant "that which is drawn along"
Native here, yep it is correct and idiomatic. "Je suis en train de [faire la chose]"
As a person learning French, I think it's more closely related to "training" or "entrain."
