It also has weak traction, whereas if the player got hit by a powerful item such as the Lightning, the kart still maintains its speed. The kart's small size make it a hard target to hit. It has the same speed as the Bullet Blaster, but the worst acceleration.ĭespite the kart's four-star speed stat, the Barrel Train shares its speed with the Bullet Blaster, DK Jumbo, and the Piranha Pipes. It can also push around the Green Fire and Bloom Coach karts. Statistics Mario Kart: Double Dash!! įor its stats, the Barrel Train is the heaviest lightweight kart in the game, sharing its weight with both the middleweight Red Fire and Heart Coach karts. The Barrel Train increases the duration of Rocket Start boosts and the amount of points earned upon performing a Rocket Start. It uses the Off-Road tires from Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. The star decals return on the sides of the kart. It uses its design from Mario Kart 7, making it the only kart originating in Mario Kart: Double Dash!! to not retain the item user's handlebar. The Barrel Train returns in Mario Kart Tour, classified as a Super kart. However, steam still bellows from the stack each time a boost happens. Aside from that, the horn sound effect is missing, which is a real disappointment. In addition, the blue cushioned seat has been removed, along with the icons of Diddy Kong (to allow for the player's own icon). So that's why it's been removed, along with one set of wheels.
Directly underneath the barrel is one more pair of wheels, and a dull red guard rail with frays in it points out in front of the Kart for about half a foot.ĭue to the two-racer-per-kart absence of Mario Kart 7, the Barrel Train no longer would have any use for the light green seat. The front of the barrel is decorated with a single yellow star over a red backdrop, this one a little bigger. Whenever a boost is used, the horn will emit a loud whistle, and smoke will steam out from the stack. A black band holds the boards safely into place, and from the top is a gray and scarlet-rimmed horn. The locomotive engine is composed of a wooden barrel, based on the ones from the Donkey Kong series. The green basket in the back is not very spacious for Diddy Kong's partner, DK, but it suffices, with a red safety handle for grasping onto. The two back wheels of the train, which have a red and white rim with black tires, are held on by a red-painted underside. The seat is a lustrous blue, and on each door, a decal of two yellow stars in printed on the Kart (Diddy Kong's logo). The seat of the Barrel Train is made of a dark gray metal box, with the frontal panel boasting the white steering wheel.
