History Main / LocomotiveLevel

** Buckfire's level in ''VideoGame/MegaManZX Advent'', which is also significant as this is the first stage pass the tutorial and the one where Grey/Ashe receive [[TransformationTrinket Biometal Model A]]. The train specifically was a Hunter's train they were using to transport the Biometal to Legion before the Mavericks attacked with the intent of taking the Biometal.

** The Battle Subway in ''VideoGame/PokemonBlackAndWhite'' and [[VideoGame/PokemonBlack2AndWhite2 the sequels]]. Made worse because TheComputerIsACheatingBastard and frequently becomes ThatOneLevel.

** ''VideoGame/TombRaiderTheLastRevelation'' features and extensive fight from one end of a cargo train to another, often forcing Lara to precariously cling to the side of a moving train to advance.

** ''VideoGame/LegoMarvelsAvengers'' has half of the "Korea Prospects" level adapt the scene in ''Age of Ultron'' where Captain America and Scarlet Witch try to stop a RunawayTrain.
*** Earlier in the game, there's also the final part of the "Rail Hydra" level, which adapts the scene from ''The First Avenger'' where Captain America and Bucky infiltrate a Hydra train to capture Arnim Zola.
** ''VideoGame/LegoMarvelSuperheroes2'' has a Wild West level where the second half has Star-Lord needing help from Kid Colt in order to rescue some of his Guardians friends from a villain-commandeered train.

* Episode 3 of ''VideoGame/TheWalkingDeadSeasonOne'' first had the group getting a locomotive up-and-running, then using it to get to the coast.

* ''VideoGame/TrainCrasher'', like the name states, is set entirely on a subway train, where the players move from one carriage to another beating up every mook in their way until reaching the front of each train with a boss waiting for them.

* A good chunk of ''VideoGame/ProfessorLaytonAndTheDiabolicalBox'', takes place on the Molentary Express, the most luxurious train in the world.

* ''VideoGame/SkiesOfArcadia'' has a train sequence as well while escaping from the BigBad who slowly causally walks towards you.

* ''VideoGame/ShiningForceIII'' had a whole chapter about sneaking onto a train, people talking about trains, fighting in the train and then a big fight on top of the train for good measure. This was your standard medieval themed RPG so it makes sense it was such a big deal.
* The first real dungeon in ''VideoGame/TalesOfXillia2'' is a train being raided by terrorists. It seems like a normal enough scenario initially, but things get weird halfway through.

* ''VideoGame/AssassinsCreedSyndicate'' features a train as the protagonists HomeBase. Also, unsurprisingly given the time period, trains play a big part in the game and several missions revolve around high-jacking, protecting, reaching and escaping on moving trains.

*** Earlier in the game, there's also the "Rail Hydra" level, which adapts the scene from ''The First Avenger'' where Captain America and Bucky infiltrate a Hydra train to capture Arnim Zola.

** ''VideoGame/LegoTheIncredibles'' has the "Hover Train Hijinx" level, where Elastigirl and He-Lectrix need to chase after then travel across a runaway train to stop the brainwashed driver.

** ''VideoGame/LegoBatman 2: DC Super Heroes'' has one level in a subway, which of course ends on a runaway train that Batman and Superman need to reach the front of in order to stop.

** ''VideoGame/TheLegoMovieVideogame'' has the finale of the "Escape from Flatbush" level in the Wild West, where Emmet and co. have to travel across several trains in an effort to escape Bad Cop.

** ''VideoGame/LegoHarryPotter'' Years 1-4 features the starter level for ''Prisoners of Azkaban'', where Harry and co. have to make their way through the Hogwarts Express while dealing with Dementors.

* Every once in a while, the ''VideoGame/LegoAdapationGame'' series likes to include a segment where you have to move through and/or across trains, taking advantage of the limited area movement on a speeding vehicle as part of the puzzles:

** The first planet encountered in the "Toy Time Galaxy" level from ''VideoGame/SuperMarioGalaxy'' has a large model train on it.
** Chapter 6 in ''VideoGame/PaperMarioTheThousandYearDoor'' took place mostly on a very posh train called the Excess Express, in a loose parody of ''Literature/MurderOnTheOrientExpress'' and, more broadly, a pastiche of {{whodunnit}} stories.
** ''VideoGame/MarioParty8'': The board Shy Guy's Perplex Express takes place inside a long train with five standard wagons, and whose goal for the characters is to navigate from the mini-wagon at the very end to the front part where the driver awaits to sell a Star for 20 Coins. Besides the linear path and star obtainment methos, the main gimmick is that a Magikoopa sometimes comes by and scrambles the order of the cars, shifting the board and everyone's positions.

** Shyguy's Perplex Express in ''VideoGame/MarioParty8'', whose gimmick is that a Magikoopa sometimes comes by and scrambles the order of the cars, shifting the board and everyone's positions.

** The ghostly train to the afterlife from ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVI'', which is a boss in itself (and can be [[BeyondTheImpossible suplexed]]).

** ''VideoGame/DissidiaFinalFantasy'' has the Phantom Train from VideoGame/FinalFantasyVI as a level. The characters fight inside one of the cars and the seats are breakable. It's easily the most confined arena in the game, but it more or less works since the walls become partially transparent whenever doing otherwise would interfere with the camera.

* In ''VideoGame/FashionPoliceSquad'', the first half of mission 7 takes place in a subway train. It starts off as fairly normal looking train albeit with golden decorations. The more forward the train goes, the more lavish the wagons get. Some have luxurious toilets and two wagons even have two-floor spas, complete with waterfall and chandeliers.

* The final stage of ''VideoGame/Hitman3'' is a NoGearLevel set on a train, which Agent 47 boards as a TrojanPrisoner and then has to make his way to the front to finally confront [[spoiler:[[BigBad The Constant]]]]. You can choose to either sneak through each car or climb around on the outside, and the front car can of course be decoupled from the rest of the train once you get there. It's also the only level where you can kill indiscriminately, [[spoiler:since everyone there is a Providence member.]]
