- I made an episode on Half Life, TF2 and Sonic, so it's quite a bit overdue that I do one on everyone's favorite Italian plumber. Trains probably aren't the first thing you think of when it comes to Mario. While many are cartoonish looking, there's a surprising amount of them that are based on real life trains. So, in this video I'll be taking a look at the locomotives, rolling stock, and railroad infrastructure seen throughout the Mario games.

If you wanna see me talk about trains in other video games, watch the other episodes in this series here: czcams.com/play/PLaNteOr2vXGzUu4b8qHWmfwunh48mf8kU.html What other games have trains that are worth talking about? Feel free to let me know!
Really good video. But I remember a diesel train in a super mario party DS minigame.
grand theft auto series
@AmtrakGuy365 Do one on Spongebob Squarepants.
Farming Simulator series has a lot of trains
Legos games
Choo choo Charlie
Truck simulator
COD
METRO
GTA
The huge middle wheel on the 'locomotive' in Paper Mario TTYD reminds me of the old 4-2-4 tank engines on the Bristol & Exeter Railway. Those things had ridiculously large 9ft diameter driving wheels.
And the Southern Pacific C.P.Huntington
Love that he goes a little into detail about the Dutch trams and trains just for the video
I am dutch but never knew that netherland had trams

11:35 railfan toad hits too close to home 💀💀
The Railfan toad is honestly the most relatable character in fiction
Trains can play many roles in any games
I Like Trains!
@@MiniforceRailfan I think we all do! :)
Trains rule
Cars suck, train good
I think there is ONE Train that used a Horn instead of a whistle.
This video was fun getting to know how you researched all of what kinds of railroad engines, stations, and rolling stock were featured in the Mario franchise. Excellent work and good research, too.
The wisdom dolphins made the mario locomotives and call them nintendolphin engines.
11:09 You know, I never woulda noticed that if you didn’t mention it. Of course, Tomy is from Japan, like Nintendo, so I can see them possibly having taken inspiration from their couplings for the Sunset Express.
Interesting.
4:51 and also there's Emily's type ^^
@@realchristian77010 I had a hunch that would be brought up. Emily is actually one of my favorite "Thomas and Friends" characters and still is alongside Rebecca.
theyre 2 theyre 4 theyre 6 theyre 8
1:30 Soo line #1003's 6 Chime Whistle
As a huge train fanatic and Mario fan, this was a fantastic watch
I never thought I'd see amtrakguy365 ever mention my beloved tangaras in a video! Has absolutely made my day, thanks!
Their representation in mario kart is absolutely adorable too!
The BTS EMU B1 and the SRT NKF (One of THN Variant) look surprisingly extremely accurate to the real one
Trivia: In the Beta of Super Mario Sunshine there was going to be a train system that would take you to the various levels of the game.
I really hope a data leak gives us an idea of what it would’ve looked like.
This is a cool series idea, it's fun to see all these trains in a game I already enjoy and play. The lack of overhead power lines on most of the trains is probably just graphics/performance optimization. Then again it could be a choice like those connectors on the passenger cars.
To a non-Australian from a Sydneysider, I can confirm you nailed the pronunciation of "Tangara". Interestingly, despite me being young (20 years old), I actually remember the Tangaras when they had black ends but I can't remember when they started repainting the ends from black to yellow.
i love australa
Finally. The video we’ve all been waiting for in this series.
This was amazing. I never noticed the comparison between the Amsterdam Drift train and the Thalys. I can see that. Especially with the shape of the cab but I still think it is a recolored DDZ. The DDZ trains have very broad doors. Just like the train in Amsterdam Drift.
Quite an unexpected video, but still very cool, Nice video as always!😊
Hello there, I hope you’re doing well! I’m glad that your “Trains Of” Series is back as I’ve recently realized that this franchise has a surprising number of trains in it.
For whatever reason I was re-watching the Hunger Games movies and noticed that there are many trains in them. There’s the high-speed luxury train that Katniss, Peeta, and the other tributes take to the Capitol, as well as some freight train hopper cars taking coal out of District 12.
In Mocking Jay part two we see a freight train used by Capitol loyalists in District 2 to evacuate The Nut and a metro train used to transport peacekeepers and armored vehicles underground to defend the Capitol. One thing I’ve noticed in The Hunger Games is the absence of cars, even within the wealthy, high-tech Capitol, most Capitol residents either walk or take the subway. If you talk to any urban planner, they’d tell you that car-centric infrastructure is not the best, and rightly so, as it seems like the Capitol design in the movies follows a pedestrian and transit-oriented urban layout.
President Snow may be a despotic tyrant, but he knows the importance of trains as they’re used to extract resources and tributes from the districts, and transport troops and armor to rebellious districts.
Another franchise that has a few train cameos in it are the Godzilla movies as even in the original 1954 movie, Godzilla attacks a train, picking it up with his jaws. In the 2014 movie, the female MUTO attacks a freight train, picking up and swallowing the nuclear warheads it is carrying. There are a few scenes throughout the Godzilla movie franchise where Godzilla or other kaiju attack trains, so much so that it’s become a trope for monster movies where there must be at least one time where the monster attacks a train.
Thank you for covering trains in media and pop culture as it’s really interesting to see what type of trains are used in our favorite forms of entertainment. Either way, I hope you’re doing well, and for fellow trainspotters, keep spotting those trains in reality and fiction.
We finally have it. The trains of the Super Mario Franchise. We want more. Every Super Mario Train and railway infrastructure explained. The trains of Bluey?
This video is so fun and so light and enjoyable while also being incredibly well-researched. Thank you!
I kinda wished there was a Toronto themed race track with Streetcars and GO Trains featured, as well as Hockey at Scotiabank Arena and baseball the Skydome, I love Toronto
Me: Man I have no idea what to watch while I'm eating.
AmtrakGuy365 dropping this video.
Me: Perfect
The nose on the Excess Express looks more like that of a JNR EF55.
Super Bell Subway's designs being European inspired is very fitting. Especially when you listen closely while in the station, you'll hear announcements in what sounds like German. So the track definitely takes place in Europe.
I'm waiting for "The Trains of Grand Theft Auto", XD
2:16 when I was a kid play Mario Kart 64 I was pissed that the Railroad signal was inaccurate to our American Railroad signals also little trivial sega made the same mistake in Sonic Shuffle adding the Japanese Railroad signal.
Same
9:50 the train from the Berlin map also looks like the DB Class 488.0 also know as „Panorama-S-Bahn“
Glad I'm not the only nerd noting that
3:42 hey look it’s Jackson from the marysville railroad stories or Ben from San Juan Trainz
5:35
"look at em go"
lol
8:18 With the aerodynamic nose the Mario train looks a bit like the MAX train that runs around Portland Oregon.
really happy to see a new episode of one of the most interesting series on your channel
I really love the “The Trains of Games” series and wish for this series to continue for more games like Street Fighter and GTA.
Also I personally think that the Steamer locomotive in Mario Party 3 resembles a Los Angeles and San Pedro 30 inch gauge Tender Engine.
Great work, 4-4-0s are my favorite locomotives. Very cool learning about the chimes too.
2:07 Yeah, I questioned that too. It’s just weird.
Awesome job on these “Trains Of” videos! I would love to see one covering the trains in Rockstar Games, GTA, Red Dead Redemption ECT.
The Stirling single is one of my favorite locomotives due to their beautiful designs
3:00 R.I.P. luigi 💀
2:42 Correction on that? It’s Not a 6-Chime. It’s the Nevada Northern #40, but the steps are high pitched.
I’ve been waiting for this moment, and finally, it’s here.
This was absolutely fascinating!
While replaying Thousand-Year Door with some friends a few months back I was geeking out over the Excess Express and sharing with them what I though it's inspirations may have been, I cracked up the coupling rods on the leading and trailing wheels to being Powered Boggies like a Fairlie though now that you mention the Heisler design that makes so much more sense!
Also, I think I have en explanation for the erroneous inclusion of side rods on the Coaches seen in Kalimari Desert in Tour & 8 Deluxe.
While I have no evidence to back this up, I'm fairly certain that the MKTour Developers simple copied & pasted the wheels & their animation from the Engine, shrunk them down and called it a day without deleting the siderods.
Since 8 Deluxe (Specifically the booster pass) reuses a lot of Assets from Tour this is probably why this baffling design choice is present in both.
Lazy design is still lazy design, if they really wanted to save themselves the hassle, they could have easily ported the MK7 models. But I guess they want the more squished, cartoonish look
I have just learned where that crossing sound in the OpenSFX pack in openttd comes from.
thats wild!
4:53 Emily from Thomas and Friends
The Paper Mario Color Splash locomotive actually looks most like a JNR Class 6760. There are quite a lot of details that pretty strongly resemble it, I think this was the main locomotive being referenced for the final design
Oh wow it actually does! I never even came across that engine in my research lol. I figured it was a generic American 4-4-0 because the old west theming.
@@AmtrakGuy365 You forgot about Steamer from the Mario Party Series (at least, the Hudson based games).
@@AmtrakGuy365, the delfino railway build those mario trains into the delfino railway nintendolphin locomotives
3:18 thw k64 express locomotive looks mor like a freelance well tank
Such a great video, Was waiting for when this was coming out!
Dont know if anyone has pointed this out, 12:00 the trains aesthetics looks to be inspired by the Main Street Electrical parade, or the tokyo equivalent Tokyo Dream Lights train design. Cant wait for more videos!
so you're tellin me that there is a possibility that there could be a communist revolution in the mushroom kingdom right now as we speak
This is such a cool and unique video, I love watching stuff like this! :D
7:59 you forgot [or you didn't know] that the flying train is based off galaxy railways [kinda] 4-4-0 888 look it up
11:29 MIDWEST CENTRAL RAILROAD NO 6!!!!! THAT IS MY CHILDHOOD LOCOMOTIVE!!
Love that engine too
Kirby Planet Robobot had trains with cars having side-rods, too.
I've been wanting this video for years, let's go
Can You Do The Trains Of Grand Theft Auto
Yeah especially since in SA you can find his favorite, the F40PH used for the Brown Streak.
Happy to see you mention the 0 series , one of my favourite railway machines due to thier plane like design,
There is something that popped to mind that made me think of Shy guy's Perplex express. Looking at the kitchen, dining car, and passenger cars, I believe that the entire train is based on the 20th century limited ran by the New York Central.
PLEASE tell me I'm not the only one who thought of that!!
Wow, thanks for sharing this, that’s amazing!
If only the planned Delfino Express from Mario Sunshine wasn’t cancelled. 😞
8:16 I would say the paint scheme, bi-level cars and rounded cab resemble the SBB Twindexx EMUs as well :)
And somehwat the Zürich S-Bahn Stadler KISS
Love these videos, and I'd love a short or something of you talking about Legend of Zelda Spirit Tracks.
1:41 to 1:49 That whistle was also used for Thomas in an alternate opening storyboard for Thomas & The Magic Railroad.
2:23 Is it just me, or do others find the standard Japanese Crossing Bell sinister sounding? It's probably just because I associate with Evangelion where it's used to create anxiety during introspection scenes
Loved the video! Thank you!
THANK YOU for mentioning the side rods on the n64 express. I think that’s why 7 has the best design for it. :333
Love your vids on comparing fictional locomotives to their real life counterparts! Was wondering that you could not only do this series on video games, but maybe other forms of media as well! Obviously, Thomas is too obvious as almost everyone there is based on a real locomotive, but maybe something like the Galaxy Express/Railways anime could be an interesting topic for this series! I've always wondered if the other trains had some form of basis to them, so it'd be nice to have some confirmation on them!
0:57 for brief second you can hear old Roblox jumping sound you know 😏
1:51: Correction: It’s the Safety First: Nevada Northern #40
10:08 Oh yeah I seen the Tangara's they un the same city that I am in
Tangaras were Stainless Steel double deckers, Australian made.
They were also built to replace the Subway version of the Red Rattler in 1991. still servicing Sydney today
As Thai guy
Im surprise how accurate those things are.
In “Kalamari Desert” (you said this) the coaches have… side rods?? I have no idea why? Literally EVERY cartoon train (except for Thomas And Friends) HAS ROLLING STOCK WITH SIDE RODS
Edit: ITS THE EXACT SAME THING 6:09
I love this shy guy's perplex express its my favourite train ever
I love Trains & Mario! They made up my entire childhood.
Every train in Trainz: A New Era
The Mario Party 8 Locomotive actually closely resembles a mix between a Santa Fe #1010 2-6-2 and Southern Pacific #314 4-6-0. I think Nintendo got those 2 final designs for the locomotive.
Well thus is a video I didn't know that I needed.
8:16 I was thinking it was a SBB doubledecker because of the colour scheme, but now that you show the VIRM, it makes a little more sense now.
It would be more awesome if they had put a ICM(m) instead since its more iconic. Great video btw 👍🏻
4:24 Heisler Steam locomotives were built in 1891
“Great video!” I love trains and super Mario games such as Mario kart, Mario party, Mario sports titles and more. 😁👍
My 2 favourite locomotives From Here Is Are shy guy's perplex express and paper Mario color splash
Really enjoyed the video. But does the map in super bell subway more reassemble Harry becks design of the London Underground tube map - Which was later adopted worldwide to places such as the NYC subway map? Just a small thing at 7:46
Also in regards to the metro cars, the corrugated stainless steel car bodies may be inspired from the Stockholm C20 or Bucharest BM2, both built by ADtranz, later Bombardier.
True, but corrugated stainless steel subway cars have also been iconic in pop culture for several decades, largely thanks to the New York City subway.
@@drdewott9154 I can agree, but I decided to stick to European examples given that he gave the German BR423 and French MP89 as the examples 🙂
Either way, I'm glad that here Bucharest bucks the trend of metro trains with aluminum car bodies and sticks to corrugated stainless steel to this day. It gives a unique feel compared to every other metro system in Europe.
3:52 it looks like a diesel but like a cursed version and it has Pisson rods
I'm a Japanese railway & mario fan.
I'm very glad to see this video which explains about trains in mario series in details!🚂🚃🚄
nintendo really doing their homework on all things related to trains and the railroad. Massive props to them
When I hear the word branch lines: Thomas and friends, branchline intensifies.”
0:13
This is going to be good.
My main takeaway from this video is that the Berlin wall exists in Mario cart, implying that both the cold war, and the preceeding events are canon to Mario. There was a nuclear arms race and a Holocaust in the Mario universe
This is actually a thing I really wanted, I had no idea this existed.
The crossover I personally needed.
The Kalimari Desert express is iconic
1:40 back to the future lol
Awesome video!
I would’ve liked to have seen some info on the Star Express and Fright Train from Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker - they were some of my favourite stages in that game.
3:34
I’m almost certain that’s a sound from the Warner Bros. sound effects library
(I like to believe this whistle made its debut as the large steam locomotive’s whistle in "Porky’s Railroad")
the wooden train in spirit tracks also reused that sample
I'm liking this video just because I'm happy it exists (I want a model of the Bullet Bill Train so bad!)
odd video idea, but entertaining!
I NEEDED THIS!
Ive loved mario for ages and the trains in the are cool nice video :)
May I suggest the Trains of Zelda? There was even a whole Zelda game ABOUT trains!
❤ I love it how you found out all trains in Mario worlds
The Railfan Toad got a good laugh out of me. Didn’t know Nintendo would reference that!
I'm not a big railfan but this series on video game trains is super entertaining.
