A moving stage with a lot of features and cameos! 
The description may be a bit confusing, I'm afraid... Let's hope you'll understand everything!

[glow=red,2,300]Description[/glow]
This moving stage takes place on the Paradise Line, a very long railway that goes through a large part of the Mother/Earthbound 0 overworld. You fight on the top of a train, which is composed of two wagons, as you can see on the pics. The train's length is about 1,5 times the size of the moving platform in SSBM's Mute City, so it's a good area to fight on.To make it more suitable for Brawl, there is a platform hovering above the train, in the middle of the screen. Unlike the floating platforms in SSBM's Big Blue, that platform is connected to the train, so don't worry, it won't get offscreen!
As in Big Blue, any character that falls on the railway will be pushed off the screen almost immediately. The train is higher than F-Zero vehicles, which means that it leaves you more time to react, but if you fall on the railway in front of the train, you will be rammed and knocked offscreen immediately! Watch out!
The Paradise Line is long, and the train will cross several different areas. Here is a description of these places!
Snowman
The stage starts in the freezing city of Snowman. The train is waiting in front of the station, while the town can be seen in the background. The weather is cold and snowy, but it does not really affect the gameplay. Rarely, a Big Foot appears in the far background. After about fifteen seconds, the train moves off and leaves the station.
Snowman-Spookane
During the first part of the travel, the train goes through the chilly lands surrounding Snowman. The snow falling on the roof of the train slightly decreases the traction of the players. After a while, the train will cross a short tunnel. You cannot stand on the platform while the train is going through it, but you can still fight on the train without having to crouch. The darkness of the tunnel makes the fight a bit hard to see, too. Finally, the train goes through a small plain before stopping in the second station.
Spookane
Downtown Spookane has been invaded by wild animals, and all the people have fled to the residential area of the town, located to the east. Various animales can be seen wandering in the streets of the city, in the background. Sometimes, Eagles will swoop down and attack the players (20% damage).
Spookane-Reindeer
Nothing special here. Just crossing plains and two small bridges ,without any hazards.
Reindeer
The peaceful, cosy town of Reindeer is the third place where the train will stop. Corn fields can be seen in the background, as well as a few buildings. But there is something really interesting here: a grade crossing on the left of the screen. Whenever the train stops, you can usually stand and fight on the railway, but her it's a bit risky, as Mad Cars, Mad Trucks and Maniac Trucks often come rushing from the background (like the F-Zero vehicles in Mute City).
Reindeer-Merrysville
This time, there will be a very loooong tunnel on your way to Merrysville. Like the one you crossed earlier, it is a dark place with low ceiling.
Merrysville/ Union Station
After getting past the big city of Merrysville, the train will stop at the Union Station. Duncan's Factory can be seen in the far background. Watch out for the big rockets that come crashing onto the stage at random spots, they hurt a lot (25% damage)!!
Then, the train goes back to Reindeer, Spookane, and Snowman, following the same path in the opposite direction. A few things will be changed on the way back:

Then, the train goes back to Reindeer, Spookane, and Snowman, following the same path in the opposite direction. A few things will be changed on the way back:
- In Spookane people wearing grey clothes will appear on the roof of the station. After watching the fight for a few seconds, they will reveal thei true form: Starmen (see below)! Avoid their PSI Beams and you'll be fine!
- In Snowman, it will be hailing!The hailstones slowly damage the players, to make the fight harder.
