The Bowser Express in the game Super Mario 3D World

The level starts on a platform near a train with some Skipsqueaks nearby. The player needs to hop on the train and avoid a nearby Spike Bar in order to reach an area infested with Conkdors and Bullies. A pool of water comes soon after that where the player must navigate past some Madpoles in order to get back on the train. The player must now avoid a Spike Bar and enter a room filled with Mini Goombas. A Hammer Bro guards the nearby pipe which brings the player to Pom Pom. After defeating her, a Warp Box brings the player to the area with the Goal Pole. As with the Bullet Bill Express, the train starts off at a platform before speeding up and leaving, and if the player chooses not to board the train or fails to in time, they will lose a life due to being left behind by the level's auto-scrolling camera and the train itself.
