Utility cars house payload space, but more importantly power banks to accumulate power as the train travels. After the civil war, at least 37 Battery Cars were offline[1]. This suggests that large parts of Snowpiercer are dedicated to power reserves.

Melanie later drained the batteries too much trying to escape from Wilford. As a result, the train could never move on its own again and had no energy reserves to restart the bogie motors. However, before the Pirate Train was created, Bojan Boscovic said Big Alice has enough juice for systems to survive. Which means Big Alice recharged the batteries, some point after the sabotage of The Engine and is powering Snowpiercer.

However, without Snowpiercer’s engine, the energy it provided was only enough to support essential systems on the train. As a result, it was minus degrees inside the train and all resources were rationed. First Class was even decommissioned by Wilford to save energy.

History of C0303[edit | edit source]

  • Car C0303 is where Layton locked the doors so Josie could not pursue him when he ran out of the Clinic with her Access Chip.

Technology[edit | edit source]

The batteries in the car were developed by Solar Industries in Colorado, USA. They are Lead-acid batteries (6-GFM-200/12V200Ah) encased in a recycled aluminum shell.[2]

Interior[edit | edit source]

Each car consists of three sections, with double internal bulkheads dividing them. To grant access through the door, a RFID Access Chip must be used. The battery section has several levels of batteries stacked in rows on each side of the car. While blue light illuminates the battery packs, they themselves have red indicators. The Utility section (mainly in the middle of the car) has a storage room divided by two RFID protected bars[2]. The Sub-Train is accessible in the battery section, by a hatch in the floor.

Appearances[edit | edit source]

Season One

Trivia[edit | edit source]

  • Car C311 caused the Torreta Canyon crisis when a bullet-damaged battery leaked acid and short-circuited the bogie motor's brakes.
  • The lifetime of this kind of battery is around 5-7 years.
  • One of these batteries can charge a iPhone X around 73 times.
  • Each battery has around the same power capacity as a Tesla Model 3 Standard Range.
  • Ironically, the batteries carry "Non Spillable" label.
