Wilikin Worker’s Town & Wilikin Band Café
Turn around and jump down to a lower ledge with a few coins and a Bounce Pad. Bounce back up and go through the door to the right of your starting spot. The Wilikins inside have a quest for Shield Shredder.
Approach Kaos, but don’t follow him when he starts down the path. The door on the right leads to Spool Storage Shack. The door to the left of where Kaos stops and waits is Wilikin Break Room.
Spool Storage Shack & Wilikin Break Room
A Story Scroll is inside the Spool Storage Shack. Destroy everything else in the shack and step on the red button to drop the gate in front of a Treasure Chest in the nearby Wilikin Break Room.
Go back outside and arrange the pipe blocks to restore the flow of water and open the way to Railcar Repair Station.
Railcar Repair Station & Railcar Repair Shop
Conlan provides an update on the situation at the Workshop. The tracks are blocked, but wait to open them. The door near Conlan goes to the Railcar Repair shop (it has only a Troll Radio inside), and an Undead Gate is not too far away. When you’re done exploring, pull the switch to start the Railcar Gauntlet.
Railcar Gauntlet & Railcar Arena
Indestructible railcars spawn from a cave and roll down the tracks. To avoid the railcars, jump over them or step to the open areas on either side of the tracks.
The railcars stop coming when your Skylander crosses into the Railcar Arena and a Battle Gate appears. Evilikin cannons support a new type of enemy, an Evilikin that is invulnerable while it spins. The final enemy is a Scrap Shooter.
Big Train Loading Area
Leave Kaos waiting on the platform beyond the Battle Gate. Follow the wooden fence on the right until it ends. Drop off the side. Fling Kong’s Soul Gem (Make It Rain) is on a ledge with a Bounce Pad.
When the trains start running, hop on one and ride it across the bridge. Ride the train to the End of the Line to earn the Ride the Rails achievement.
End of the Line
Pick up the Legendary Masterpieces floating above the platform where the train stops. Destroy the nearby Traptanium crystal to create a bridge to the nearby boat and pile of gold. The ledge below has a Magic Gate and a Bounce Pad that goes back to the Big Train Loading Area.
Sneaky Pete’s Saloon, Rochester’s House & The Old Mill
The building above the Magic Gate is Sneaky Pete’s Saloon. The two houses on the platform across from where Kaos waits are Rochester’s House and the Old Mill. Sneaky Pete and Rochester both have quests for trapped Villains. The Old Mill has a Skystones Smash player named Yar Har and a Winged Sapphire, both hidden behind a wall of boxes. When you’re done with the quests and Skystones Smash playing, meet up with Kaos. Once you enter the Factory, there’s no way to return to the train yards.
The Factory
Ride the conveyor belt and pick up as many coins as you can. The ride ends at a Traptanium crystal and a blocked Bounce Pad. Take down a quartet of spinning Evilikins to remove the Battle Gate.
Open the Villain Stash and destroy the Traptanium crystal near it. Destroying the crystal clears the path to a Treasure Chest. Bounce to the higher conveyor belt and move against it to reach Persephone. A few enemies appear on the next conveyor belt, which carries your Skylander to the Smashing Area.
Smashing Area & Crane Loading and Dropping
Use the Bounce Pads to climb a few levels. A Treasure Chest is behind a Battle Gate; this gate is opened by a large red button on a nearby platform across the conveyor belt.
Ride the conveyor belts to another platform with a Bounce Pad. The higher platform has a Traptanium crystal with Head Rush’s Soul Gem (Horns Aplenty) inside.
Avoid the welding arms and cross the conveyor belts to reach another Battle Gate. Eliminate the Evilikins to remove the gate. A ramp retracts and halts your progress. The switch that controls the ramp is not far, but the boxes on the conveyor belt needed to reach the switch turn into mines.
Lower the ramp and carefully cross over the conveyor belt. Use the crane controls to pick up Bombs and blow up the barriers.
Path to Dr. Krankcase
The area outside the Factory is filled with Evilikin forces. Large stone formations block your progress until you defeat the Evilikins in the immediate area.
Back at Skylander Academy
Go to the Main Hall and place the Legendary Masterpieces above the fireplace. When you’re ready to go to Time Town, talk to Flynn.
