'''Spirit Train''' ({{ja|汽車|Kisha}}, ''Train'') is a stage in {{for3ds}} and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' based on the Spirit Train that travels through New Hyrule in the [[Nintendo DS]] game ''{{iw|zeldawiki|The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks}}''.

Characters can fight inside the carriage of the train. The roof of the carriage is a soft [[platform]]. The train is also towing another platform behind it. An aerial platform will occasionally appear on-screen. Players can also stand on top of the train itself. The train is being driven by Link in his conductor appearance from ''Spirit Tracks''; he stands in the background and does not interact with the fighters. However, if any one of [[Link]], [[Toon Link]] or [[Young Link]] are fighting, Alfonzo will be conducting the train instead. In Local Wireless, neither of them appear, leaving the train with no conductor regardless of which characters are fighting.

The rear carriage can be replaced during battle: the train backs to the right blast line, then pulls forward with a new rear carriage, which can come in several variations:

{{iw|zeldawiki|Dark Train}}s and {{iw|zeldawiki|Armored Train}}s also appear on the stage. Armored Trains affect the train by ramming into it and pushing it towards the opposite blast line. Dark Trains may leap on the train (which can KO characters on top of it) and explode. The Dark Train may also dud once in a while, similar to a [[Smart Bomb]]. Players can additionally attack the Dark Train to detonate it.

Any item that touches the tracks immediately disappears, except the [[Soccer Ball]], [[Sandbag]] and [[Smash Ball]]. This makes defeating [[Assist Trophies]] much easier than on other stages, since all fighters need to do is knock them onto the tracks instead of depleting their health.

===Ω forms and Battlefield form===

In ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'',  the [[Ω form]] replaces the train with a flat platform resembling the flatbed rail cars. The stage is set higher above ground so the tracks aren't seen, even when the game is paused and the camera is angled down.

 

In ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', the Ω form and [[Battlefield form]] are identical to the Ω form in ''SSB4''; however, it is resized and reshaped to match {{SSBU|Final Destination}} and {{SSBU|Battlefield}}, respectively. The three [[soft platform]]s of the Battlefield form are unique to this form.

The Spirit Train first appeared in ''The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks'', where Link drives it around New Hyrule to reach various destinations. The Spirit Train's design is how it appears in ''Spirit Tracks'' with the [[zeldawiki:Train Cars#Spirit_Train|Solid Passenger Car]], which comes with the locomotive itself, and different rear carriages that can appear on the stage, one of them being the {{iw|zeldawiki|Trusty Freight Car}} add-on from ''Spirit Tracks''. Dark Trains are enemy trains in ''Spirit Tracks'' that attack by pursuing the Spirit Train attempting to crash into it, causing an instant game over. Conductor Link wears his Driver outfit from ''Spirit Tracks''.

You'll travel the lovely Forest Land as you fight, but be careful where you're standing—the last car can come uncoupled from time to time. You may see Linebeck III's shop, and Alfonzo drives if Link or Toon Link are busy fighting.

|desc-pal=The Spirit Train from The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks takes you on a picturesque tour of the Forest Land while you, um... battle. Stay on your toes – the last car has a habit of decoupling and recoupling itself. Linebeck's shop also makes the odd appearance, and Alfonzo will drive the train if Link or Toon Link are busy with the brawl.
