Girl, let me tell you about my wild ride through the Ghost Train in Infinity Nikki! As a fellow stylist on the grind to level up my Stylist Rank, I know how crucial those Dews of Inspiration and Whimstars are for unlocking those fire new outfit sketches. The Ghost Train is this totally spooky dungeon in the Abandoned District, and it's not just about looking cute—you gotta get creative with your Ability Outfits to chase down a lost artifact. I'm here to spill all the tea on how I navigated this haunted express from platform to control room without getting ghosted (literally!).

All Aboard the Spooky Express! 🚂👻

So, you start at the Train Station in the Abandoned District. My first tip? Don't just rush past the ticket booth! Before you even think about climbing aboard, scour the top corner of the station—I almost missed the Dews of Inspiration tucked away there, and honey, every drop counts! Once you're on the train, the vibe is... eerie. Momo's off doing who-knows-what, and Nana gives you the basics before peace-ing out. Your first move? Head straight to the back of the train. Yeah, it feels counterintuitive, but trust me on this one.

On the second flatbed, things get real. There's a bunch of crates, and behind them? Two more Dews of Inspiration, just waiting to be snatched. But watch out—the train starts moving once you fight off some pesky esselings at the back. My heart was racing! As soon as you can move again, grab the two Dews at the very back before you even think about moving forward. It's like, 'Okay, Nikki, prioritize!' Then, the real parkour begins. I climbed over crates to avoid ghosts prowling below—they're not friendly, let me tell ya. Passing through the passenger cars was a brief breather, but then you hop onto the second platform. Turn around! Two more Dews are hidden on a crate there. It's those little details that make all the difference.

And oh! When a Piecey cutout pops up in front of you, don't panic. Just circle around it—you'll collect three more Dews like it's a mini treasure hunt. Continue to the next flatbed, and girl, the challenges keep coming!

Heavy-Duty Flatbed: Where Things Get Real 💪

When you reach the Heavy-Duty Flatbed, you'll spot a cat-shaped ghost (kinda cute, ngl). But don't get distracted! Turn around immediately and purify two Dews of Inspiration tucked under a stack of crates. It's like the game's testing your attention span! Past the next Piecey cutout, you'll find more crates. Drop down below them to grab two more Dews, then hurry past the ghosts—they're not here for a fashion show.

Cross over a couple more flatbeds, and look up! Another set of Dews is placed up high, nestled between crates and netting. You gotta have a good eye for these. Then, you hit a flatbed piled high with boxes you must climb over. Here's the scoop: a Whimstar is nearby! After collecting two Dews past a cutout Piecey, slip behind the second cutout—that's where you'll find the next Whimstar. It's sneaky, but so worth it.

Before you head to the roof, don't forget the last flatbed. Two more Dews are carefully hidden below the crates there. I almost skipped it in my rush, and that would've been a tragedy!

Now, for the roof... oh boy. Avoid the flaming bars overhead—this part is intense! Hop over the low ones and avoid jumping underneath the high ones (learned that the hard way). When you see a broken piece of the roof, time your jump and plunge carefully to break through. And guess what? You'll collect the last Whimstar! It's a total 'heck yeah' moment. Weave between more iron bars until you can drop back down onto a flatbed. Once there, hop over a crate to grab the final two Dews of Inspiration before heading into the Passenger Car. Phew!

Control Room: The Final Countdown! ⏰

Okay, this is where the pressure is ON. To get to the control room, you're racing against the clock—only have two minutes before the train crashes! Ghosts and esselings are everywhere, and falling off means game over, so watch your footing! My hands were sweaty, ngl.

Here's my pro tip: Use your floating outfits to navigate the top of the flatbeds. The higher you fly, the easier it is to make it to the front of the train in time. I switched to my lightest, most ethereal outfit, and it made a huge difference. Once you reach the front, it's showdown time. You'll need to defeat the esselings to save Ol' Fannypacky (bless his heart), stop the runaway train, and clear the dungeon. It's chaotic, but so satisfying when you pull it off.

My Takeaways & Pro Stylist Hacks ✨

Let me break down what worked for me in a quick list:

  • Patience is key: Rushing means missing Dews. Take a breath and explore every nook.

  • Outfit strategy: Save floating outfits for the control room sprint—they're lifesavers.

  • Timing matters: Practice those roof jumps; the Whimstar is non-negotiable.

  • Ghost awareness: Always know where they are—getting caught slows you down big time.

In the end, the Ghost Train was a blast (and a bit of a stress test!). It's all about balancing collection with survival. What was your trickiest moment on the train? Share below—I'm always down for more styling tips! 💖

PS: If you're stuck, remember: circle those cutouts, look high and low, and don't forget to breathe. You've got this, fellow stylist!
