'''Steamer''' is a steam locomotive found only in some of the games of the [[Mario Party (series)|''Mario Party'' series]]. | '''Steamer''' is a steam locomotive found only in some of the games of the [[Mario Party (series)|''Mario Party'' series]]. It speaks with a {{wp|Southern American English}} accent, particularly that of a precious metals prospector, and is usually seen lugging a small wooden train car behind it on which characters can stand as it moves about. It also has a lamp on the top of its "face," a red "nose" where a unit number would appear on a normal steam-powered train, and a thick gray mustache with matching eyebrows (while not having visible eyes), giving it the appearance of an elderly person. It is the main attraction in [[Western Land]] in ''[[Mario Party 2]]'', where it makes its debut. The characters can ride Steamer by hitting a block. If the character hits the block and gets a [[Toad]], Steamer goes forward, but if a [[Goomba]] appears, Steamer goes backward. Riding Steamer allows characters to move farther than they normally could with hitting the [[Dice Block]]. Characters who are on the track and get hit by Steamer are sent back to the start of the map. Since ''Mario Party 2'', Steamer has been associated with ramming into characters and sending them flying. When on the move, Steamer makes a sound resembling that of a high-pitched train whistle and steam shoots from its sides. | ||
