Reptile Boxcar

A train car segment in the circus train filled with reptile vats and a narrow metal catwalk hanging from the ceiling. This boxcar serves as the primary setting for Indiana Jones’s reptile phobia sequence and the Nazi pursuit. The catwalk, spanning above the vat of snakes and other reptiles, collapses under the weight of Indy, Halfbreed, and Rough Rider during a fight with Roscoe, hurling Indy into the snakes below. The boxcar's collapse marks the end of this phase of the chase, distinct from the Clean-Out Door’s role as an escape route.
