The Mole Train
The train as it appears in The Mole Train boss battle in Donkey Kong Country Returns

The train,[1] also known as the mine train,[2] is a vehicle operated by Mole Miner Max and the Mole Miners in Donkey Kong Country Returns and Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D. It is a five-cart diesel train with a giant mechanized drill in the chassis.

The train first appears in Mole Patrol. In the level, Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong ride a Rocket Barrel through a mine constructed by the Mole Miners. After a while, the train appears and throws out Mole Miners that are held aloft by balloons. The train eventually runs off-track and then continues drilling into the side of the cave.

The train is featured in the boss level The Mole Train. Mole Miner Max is hypnotized by Banjo Bottom, and Mole Miner Max starts up the train. The Kongs ride a Mine Cart, and the other four Mine Carts are attached to the train itself. Mole Miners pop out of the train carts to throw pickaxes at the Kongs. After the train goes down the slope, the four carts detach from the train, and the Kongs' Mine Cart connects to the other four. Mole Miners hiding in the Mine Carts surface and retreat periodically, falling out of the Mine Cart when the Kongs stomp on them. When Donkey Kong and Diddy defeat every Mole Miner, blue sparks are emitted from the wheels of four Mine Carts. Those carts fall off the stage, leaving only one of the Mine Carts still going, on which the Kongs must stand in order to reach the train again.

After the Kongs defeat two more groups of Mole Miners, the Kongs' Mine Cart connects behind four Mine Carts that are connected to the train itself. Mole Miner Max jumps out of the cockpit to fight the Kongs. After being hit a few times, Mole Miner Max is defeated, and the Kongs knock him back into the train's cockpit. The train's wheels stop moving and the drill breaks loose, causing the train to slow on the rails. The train stops at the discontinued rails over a wide pit. The train nearly falls off the tracks, but its drill breaks off and falls into the pit.
