The Forever Train was a Venomian energy supply train taking refuge on Macbeth during the Lylat Wars. Its purpose was to deliver supplies and weapons to a supplies depot to deliver and/or launch to the Venomian Forces. It also contained a prototype mech called [[Mechbeth]], to which it was directly tied to due to its power source still being developed during the war.

The '''Forever Train''' is a train used by the Venomian Army to bring supplies to a supply depot on Macbeth. It serves as a boss in ''[[Star Fox 64]]'' and ''[[Star Fox 64 3D]]'', and it contains another boss called the [[Mechbeth]].
The forever train, as the name suggested, was a very long train. Sometimes, it even had to detach several of its cars.


The Forever Train is seen throughout the entire level on Macbeth. The engineer of the train tries to evade the [[Star Fox Team]] by dropping loads of rocks in [[Fox McCloud|Fox's]] way. Fox eventually destroys all of the cars attached, leaving only the locomotive, and another car holding a boss called Mechbeth. The Engineer activates the Mechbeth as a last resort.
The known cars of the train are a Garuda transport car with two crates, four Cannon Cars, four ore transport cars, two propane gas cars, a crate car, a Liquid Fuel Carrier, the Mechbeth car, and the locomotive itself.


Eventually, Fox destroys the train, in one of two ways: If Fox hits all of the switches, the tracks change, and the train is carried towards a restricted area of the supply depot, and it crashes into it, killing the engineer, and destroying the train, the Mechbeth, and the depot in a tremendous explosion. But if Fox misses the switches, he is forced to battle the Mechbeth. If he destroys it, the damaged Mechbeth crashes down on top of the train, destroying the train, and killing the engineer. The first method takes the Star Fox Team to [[Area 6]] and the second one to [[Bolse]].
