Trains and Sonic the Hedgehog in one video? While many may focus on the obscure Sonic games, cut content, or character personalities, I've been one to notice the trains featured throughout the games. As an avid Sonic fan myself, along with being a railfan, I've sought to take a look at all (assuming I didn't miss any major ones!) of the trains seen throughout the games thus far! So lets take at look a look at the trains of Sonic the Hedgehog!

Anybody else find it ironic that the only two trains owned by Eggman, who prides himself in being a technological genius and you'd assume would prefer modern inventions, are also the only two steam engines in the entire Sonic Franchise?

At 6:18 This train is definetly based upon trains from the RhB (Rhätische Bahn) in switzerland. The paintscheme fits theres, a logo at the front, the indented doors and you can see that it is a motorcar pulling coaches. lightly different colors and non indented doors on the next car coming up, a practice common on the RhB. So it seems to be a mix of RhB 501 and the KiHa 150. The coach itself looks quite like an RhB Type IV car.

Dear Amtrakguy365. The Shanghai maglev and the German Transrapid are the same trains. The ones in Shanghai were built by siemens/Thyssen Krupp and are the only German transrapids that actually went into commercial service. The image that you showed for the German Transrapid seems to be the Transrapid 09 which was the last Transrapid ever tested before the Emsland test facility closed down in 2011. This is just for you info. Have a great day!

I think that the first one is more similar to the Reading Blue Liners, or some of the old interburbans. Also, the maglevs are TR08s, and they use Electromagnets, basically just connecting and disconnecting a million times a second.

One thing you forgot about was the armored trains from rail canyon zone in Sonic Heroes. However, those looked very ambiguous and don't seem to resemble any real designs, and Sonic Heroes also tends to be overlooked/ignored by lots of people because it wasn't notable or one of the best sonic games out there.

@Socimi 3 жыл бұрын

Just a quick note: The first train's might also be partially based on the 6000 Series of Nankai Railway (a Japanese major private serving southern Osaka), the livery is practically identical, and the train in the sonic game has definitely a stainless steel bodyshell. Also, the red train at 6:20 is based on the Swiss RhB ABe4/4 (used on the St.Moritz to Tirano section of the Bernina Express line), rather than JR Hokkaido's KiHa 150.

@salahmed1890 3 жыл бұрын

In my opinion, much of the music in Sonic The Hedgehog franchinse (especially the instrumental music) is so fitting for trains. It really does go well with railroading in my honest opinion. I have felt that way since I became a Sonic fan once again in the end of 2012. This summer I took a long Amtrak journey and I was listening to a bunch of Sonic music form all types of games and even fan-made games. Most of the music from Sonic Mania really sounds good with railroading. Even some remixes sound good; namely the Sonic Tornado Defense Act 2 by Hadron Music.

@SebastianD334 3 жыл бұрын

The train at 6:20 is clearly based on the Swiss RhB ABe 4/4 III. It's paint scheme, buffer (yes singular) and lights are the same. But it's windows are often too tall, it isn't electric and it has one extra section.
