Layout
Mario lands in a platform where is leaned a rail board, after a single Flophopper. In this ride, Mario crosses Donut Lifts, spiked bars and spiked cubes, until he reaches in a blue swinging engine that leads to a stationary platform with some blocks and a Flophopper. On the right, Mario will ride two moving platforms, crossing Paragoombas, Fire Piranha Plants, more Donut Lifts and spiked cubes. In the end of the rails, Mario must go up on a big platform, where three Flophoppers are faced. In the end of this platform, the plumber finds a Midway Flag and Donut Lifts with Paragoombas, that lead to two swinging platforms. The last one takes Mario to four platforms circling spiked blocks and under a ? Block with a Super Mushroom or Fire Flower. Going up on an iron floating area, Mario encounters many Flophoppers, a pole that leads to a Template:Conjecturaltext and three Donut Lifts, conducting to two moving boards that, besides going ahead, also go up or down. After crossing many falling blocks and spiked obstacles, he will find two platforms. Between them, a swinging platform and on the last, the Flagpole.
