The Engine also known as Big Alice is the propulsion method of Big Alice. Big Alice is a propulsion method of a secondary supply train of the same name. The Engine is a perpetual motion machine that propels the train forward with the use of hydrogen gained from the snow outside and without any obvious need for maintenance. The secondary function of the Engine is that of a powerplant for car bogie-motors and on-board batteries. As such, the speed of the train is directly tied to its power supply.
