Pilot Train is the train that appears in the pilot episode, All That Remains. In the episode it is known as Snowpiercer, a large train run by Wilford Industries & Transport. Just like the TV Series train, it circles the globe carrying remains of human civilization following the global freezing extinction event seven years prior.
The train appears a-lot different than the TV Series train, appearing to be something that was designed and built as a specifically designed ark instead of a retro-fitted luxury train. The train also has 4 classes excluding the tail, compared to the TV and comic train's 3-class and the movie train's 2-class system. It also has a subtrain like that of the TV Series train, however it's a monorail that runs on a track on the bottom of the sub-train floor rather than one that runs on a track on the ceiling.
History (Through-out the Pilot Episode)
Exterior Appearance
The exterior of the train bears an emergent and terrifying look, like something that was built for the freeze. At the prow is a giant red rotary snowplow to clear snow off the track, and there's a coupler sticking out. It is unknown if the rotary snowplow actually still operates after 7 years and multiple ice impacts. Above the snowplow is the cockpit, and just behind it is a massive cylinder, presumably where the hydrogen is pumped to power the train. Most of the engine appears to be black or dark gray. However besides from these, it is generally unknown what the exact models or shapes of the engine. As the pilot was never released to the public, we do not know how the cars look like exterior wise at all, but judging by concept art, they may vary in general shape with a silver/gray and/or black paint scheme. Some appear to be similar to the windowless cars from the movie train.
