'''Steamer''' is a steam locomotive found only in some of the games of the [[Mario Party (series)|''Mario Party'' series]]. He 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 him on which characters can stand as it moves about. He also has a lamp on the top of his "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 him the appearance of an elderly man. He is the main attraction in [[Western Land]] in ''[[Mario Party 2]]'', where he makes his 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 his sides.

If a player chooses the opposite way of the Steamer, they jump in a mine cart along with other players who chose the same way and watch the player who chose the other way. If a player chose the same way as the Steamer, they must tap repeatedly at the two buttons that are shown on the screen to run faster. The player on the Steamer must press A repeatedly to try and catch the fleeing player.

“Hit the block and choose a direction, would ya? A Goomba will be a-sendin' ya backwards.”
—Steamer, Mario Party 2

Steamer is a steam locomotive found only in some of the games of the Mario Party series. He speaks with a Southern American English accent, particularly that of a precious metals prospector, and is usually seen lugging a small wooden train car behind him on which characters can stand as it moves about. He also has a lamp on the top of his "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 him the appearance of an elderly man. He is the main attraction in Western Land in Mario Party 2, where he makes his 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 his sides.

Steamer makes a cameo appearance in Mario Party 3 in the Duel minigame End of the Line. In this minigame, the players get knocked onto his trailing car and must guide him through three pairs of tunnels to safely make it to the station, where one tunnel leads them off a cliff and the other keeps them on the track.

Steamer makes another, minor cameo on the Mario Party 4 board Toad's Midway Madness, where he moves around the train tracks in the background.

In Mario Party 5's Super Duel Mode, the player can assemble a machine that heavily resembles Steamer by combining the Choo-Choo Body, Choo-Choo Tires, and Choo-Choo engine. These parts together provide high speed and very poor control, stats that are consistent with Steamer's behavior in the other Mario Party games.

In Mario Party DS, a toy Steamer makes an appearance in the 1-vs-3 minigame Track Star. One player stands on the toy train, and the rest stand on the rails and try to escape it.

Western Land returns in Super Mario Party Jamboree, and Steamer can be seen parked at the station closest to the starting position.
