Trains and such ...

Although only one character is arguably well known for being "stronger than a locomotive", it occurred to me that train stoppers are actually to be found in abundance.

Suppose I just want to see the best and greatest instances people know of and get them to show and tell here. Comic scenes, YouTube clips, etcetera are welcome. Most any family-friendly train themed submissions will be appreciated.

I'll begin:

1) Donna Troy.

Ultimate Colossus.

Ultimate Iron Man.

Classic Rogue.

Ult. Iron Man's feat (less impressive, but still got the job done):

Hogun did with his mace

EDIT:

Updated Originator.

Actionu Clark (saving a busload of kids)

Got good results here for day one ... repliers outstripping my own input with characters I never really knew had these feats ...

Then, early on, let me present what I think is the BEST train scene, at least as far as superhero action goes, portrayed in any media format I personally know of. Hopefully this link will last for awhile ...
So be it if it doesn't ...
Cake if anyone actually exceeds this showing ...

Quite a story on this one. Not a train stoppage, but a real-life woman who actually managed to pull a train a short distance.
Mary Jacobson, cancer survivor, age 50+. Year, 2008.
Cumberland, Maryland, if memory serves.

Classic Wonder Woman.

Iron Fist turned into a human bullet and destroyed the train with high-powered explosives.

Of course not. Sorry, I know the last caption box suggests that, I'm missing the scan. On the next page Rand is shown unscathed with his tattoo glowing.

Ah! Thought at first it might be some alternate reality where Danny DID by the farm,
or even the temporary death that preceded the Resurrection storyline I've seen mentioned somewhere online.

Glad to hear it's none of those.

Good feat, then! 😄

Silver Age.

Silver Age. Wonder Woman #114.

Yes I just noticed i didn't have the next link there, when I made it I thought I did but over looked it. Unfortunately I no longer have any of those scans since my pc broke before i could transfer it all.

Really? You guys are scaring me, I keep hearing stories of exploding computers, etc. here 😛 What happened exactly?

I'm gonna bump your Iron Fist thread and add the missing scan 😉
