The Railway is a location in Battle for BFB. The track runs roughly 2,763 miles between The Pillary Ruins and Yellow Face's Warehouse and it goes across the Mountain Range. There are currently two known trains: the high-speed express train and the 200-year-old steam train.
Coverage[]
In "Let's Raid The Warehouse", three members of each team ride the express train to and from Yellow Face's Warehouse as part of the episode's challenge.
In "Who Stole Donut's Diary", Four punishes Firey by making him clean the entire railway as he stole Donut's Diary. Leafy offers help, but she burns to death after they hug. The express train accidentally burns and is destroyed off-screen.
In "Fashion For Your Face!", the Have Cots ride the railway back to Yellow Face's Warehouse in search of tools needed to break Four out of jail. Because the express train is no longer operational due to Firey burning it, they take the steam train.
In "The Game Has Changed", Woody pranks Flower by shoving her glitter-infused sweaters off the cliff where the express train used to reside.
In "Chapter Complete", the group return to Yellow Face's Warehouse on their pursuit of Four. They see the express-train is working again, so Lollipop suggests riding it. Four hears this and possesses the train, allowing him to make a hasty escape. The steam train is also there, so the group uses that one instead. X reveals Four's origin during the ride.
The group arrives at The Pillary Ruins and exit the steam train.
In "Fishes and Dishes", Team8s uses it to go to Yellow Face’s Warehouse and back.

Trivia[]
- The length of the track is a reference to the running gag 2,763 - a number that has been reoccurring since "The Glistening".
- The Patreon wallpaper for July 2020 is Blocky, Taco, and Bubble riding the express train up the mountain tracks.
- The steam train's whistle sound effect was taken from Polson Logging Company No. 2; it was originally thought to have come from Canadian Pacific No. 1238. Outside BFB, the sound effect is notable for being used by Sam, an American engine from the show Thomas & Friends.
- If "Fashion For Your Face!" is set in 2020, then the steam train was built in 1820, since it was claimed to be 200 years old.
- It is unknown how the express train was fixed in "Chapter Complete".
- Both the steam and express locomotives appear to be freelance designs.
- However, the steam engine appears to be loosely based on several standard gauge British 0-6-0 side tanks, and the express engine looks to be based on a light rail or subway train.
