The Soul Train, this is not.
Also, apologies for the crackly, static-laden voice. No idea what caused this. Man, I need to cover the first three LPs again.
You start out punching giant explosive gas canisters as robots run everywhere. Robots crawling along the ground, robots hopping and shooting into the air, robots flying in the air and shooting lasers downward at you...there's as many robots on this train as there are putties.
Thankfully, if they're standing next to one of the explosive canisters, you can punch them a couple of times to make them explode...and take the enemies with them! Genius!
At the end of the train, you fight this giant machine that shoots lasers across the screen and lets a flamethrower loose on you as well. Be prepared for a fight and do as much dodging as punching. Not sure what "SNCB" means, though...
Once you destroy that, it's off the train as you fight off more Putties...including a brown variety that takes two hits that you haven't seen before. After that, it's on to the abandoned tracks.
You thought you'd get reprieve at the beginning of the second part? Wrong! The putties are resorting to Plan B! They've got swords, grenades and even mine carts to hide in and take cheap shots at you with rifles...if they don't push them at you first! Don't make any foolish jumps, and watch out for the flames and robots that line the tracks! But if you watch this video...you'll know where to go!
At the end you face Magnet Brain. He'll use his magnetic powers to make tornadoes spin across the ground...and push you back! Thankfully, the tornodoes are easy to avoid, and you can do a 3D jump to get away from push-back. He'll also try to hit you with his staff if you're close enough.
When you land the final blow, make sure he's not offscreen, or his death animation (where he takes a few steps before falling off the screen) won't trigger. You'll be stuck at the Stage 4 boss indefinitely, and you'll have to lose all your lives or reset the game if that happens. Just thought you'd like to know.
