The Ecliptic Express was an express train built alongside the Arklay Research Facility and Umbrella Management Training Facility.

History
In order to cover the vast distance between Raccoon City and the key Umbrella facilities throughout the Arklay Mountain region, Umbrella comissioned the construction of an expansive railway line which would connect them. A private, luxurious express train was also built, and named the "Ecliptic Express". Its purpose was to transport Umbrella employees and other materials between the facilities.

In mid to late July, Umbrella commenced the Reclamation Project, an attempt to ascertain whether the previously closed Management Training Facility could be re-opened and used by the company once more. An initial Investigation Unit was dispatched by contact was quickly lost, and a 2nd Investigation Unit was dispatched via the Ecliptic Express to find out what happened. The operation was led by Albert Wesker and William Birkin.

On July 23rd at almost 20:20, the Ecliptic Express was attacked by the Queen Leech, commanding an army of leeches. The leeches quickly overtook the train, killing and infecting every last person on board with the T-virus. Shortly after, the train stalled in the forest and Delta Team of the Umbrella Special Forces was sent to investigate. After re-taking control of the train, Delta Team reported to Wesker and Birkin before being attacked by the leeches themselves. With the death's of its controllers, the train headed straight for the Management Training Facility at a frightening speed, ensuring its derailment. Billy Coen and Rebecca Chambers were able to apply the brakes, but the train merely crashed within the Training Facility at a reduced speed, allowing the two to survive.

StructureThe Ecliptic Express was comprised of five seperate cars, with three being double-deckers. Firstly, the driver's car. Second, a car containing the conductor's room, two sleeping quarters and a bar on the upper deck. The third car housed passengers, with the upper deck containing another sleeping quarters. The fourth was another passenger car, with the fifth being comprised of a kitchen and storage compartment with a luxurious dining room on the upper deck.
