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 to much trying to escape from Wilford. As a result, the train can never move on it’s own again and has 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 must have recharged the batteries, some point before and is powering Snowpiercer.

History of EVA Car

The EVA (Extravehicular activity) Car is one of the only ways to safely exit Snowpiercer. It houses a myriad of equipment, including EVA Suits and oxygen tanks.[2] The EVA Car includes a airlock and ladder, that allows Breachmen to safely exit the train. On top of the car is also a security rail, that allows a Breachmen to strap themselves to the car.

Technology

Interior

The EVA Car includes a airlock and ladder, that allows Breachmen to safely exit the train. On top of the car is also a security rail, that allows a Breachmen to strap themselves to the car.

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[3]. The Sub-Train is accessible in the battery section, by a hatch in the floor.

Trivia

  • Snowpiercer has 16 breach exits (EVA Cars), all of which can be secured from outside entry.
  • Whenever someone uses a breach exit, it alerts The Engine.
