Mario Party 8: The Barrel Train

The Barrel Train is a locomotive operated by Donkey Kong that appears in Mario Party 8. It appears exclusively on the board Shy Guy's Perplex Express.

The Barrel Train appears whenever a player lands on a DK Space, replacing the train's current locomotive, which could be either Shy Guy's standard one or Bowser's Bad-Breath Express. In Battle Royale and Tag Battle, the first player who reaches the Barrel Train is given a free Star from Donkey Kong. In Duel Battle and Star Battle Arena, Donkey Kong doubles the player's coin total, but he gives 10 coins to players who have none.

The Barrel Train leaves either after someone reaches it, after which the normal locomotive replaces it, or if somebody lands on a Bowser Space, in which case the Bad-Breath Express replaces the Barrel Train instead.
