== <u>'''Summary'''</u> == The story is about a man named Proloff, who boarded a 1001 car train named ''[[Olga|Snowpiercer]]'' to survive a second ice age. He lived through the years on the train in a cargo deck, known as [[Cargo Car (Tail)|the tail]], with many other people. At the start of the book, he breaks out of the tail by climbing around the outside of the train, and smashing a window to climb through, where he is soon quarantined by security due to health concerns. He is later joined by a woman named Adeline Bellau, who is part of a movement intending to integrate the people from the tail into the rest of the train. After several health checks, both of them eventually meet Sergeant Briscard, who was instructed to take the pair up-train for interrogation. On the journey, the reader is shown a variety of cars throughout the train, including a bar, agriculture, and a butcher's. Soon a virus that is presumed to come from Proloff begins to spread, and infects everyone on the train, Proloff and Adeline then take this chance to escape the guards and make a dash for the engine. Before reaching the engine Proloff begins to shoot the final car to prevent anyone coming through, however the door to the engine was locked, and Adeline eventually dies due of the cold. Proloff is soon rescued by a man named Alec Forrester, who is revealed to be the train's engineer, the tail of the train was soon disconnected while the two are talking, and Alec tells Proloff that he needs to take care of the engine. After an unknown period of time, Proloff is shown looking at the engines cameras, only to find that everyone has died from the disease spread by Proloff. He is then left alone to look after the engine, where it appears he is hearing voices due to isolation, where the story ends just after.
