Steamer
- “Hit the block and choose a direction, would ya? A purple will be a-sendin' ya backwards.”
- —Steamer, Mario Party 2
Steamer is a mustachioed locomotive found in Western Land of Mario Party 2. The characters can ride Steamer by hitting a block. If the character hits it and gets a Toad, Steamer goes forward, but if a Goomba appears, Steamer goes backward.
Steamer makes a cameo appearance in Mario Party 3. It appears in the duel minigame End of the Line where the players get run over by it and must guide it through one of the two tunnels to the station.
Steamer then makes a minor cameo in the Mario Party 4 board Toad's Midway Madness.
In Mario Party 5's Super Duel Mode, the Steamer (relocalized as Choo-Choo) appears as one of the machines the player can make. It is very fast, but has poor control. Its Weapon is the Pokey Tower.
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 run away from it.
