How To Become Conductor

Enginefall Playtest · published 19 Feb 2026, 18:00 UTC

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

In Enginefall, the Conductor role puts you at the center of the action: control the train, craft top-tier gear and shape how the run unfolds. Watch the video below for a full step-by-step walkthrough on how to become the Conductor, from reaching the right carriage to making a successful extraction:

The High-Level Path to Power

Becoming the Conductor isn’t automatic, it’s something you earn during a run:

  • Travel through the train until you reach Carriage C00, the location of the Control Room.

  • The main entry doors are locked, so you’ll need to craft a Breacher to get inside.

  • After planting the Breacher and waiting for it to complete, you’ll be able to force entry. Just be ready, as this is a common flashpoint for combat.

  • Once inside, make your way up to the Control Room and register as the Conductor.

What You Can Do as Conductor

Holding the Conductor role unlocks a range of powerful and unique abilities:

  • Communicate with the entire train, including announcements and messages

  • Craft the highest-tier weapons and armor

  • Create Conductor-exclusive clothing

  • Produce Fuel Cores directly from the Control Room

  • Craft fuel-related resources outside the train, such as fuel nodes and shards

  • Print a Control Room keycard for easy access in and out

Getting Out Alive

Once you’ve gathered what you need, it’s time to leave:

  • Head to the nearest extraction point

  • Call in your Dagger shuttle

  • Extract with your Conductor loot before things go sideways

See you on the train!
