X Trains

The X Trains (エックストレイン) are the mecha of Lupin X/Patren X in Kaitou Sentai Lupinranger VS Keisatsu Sentai Patranger.

Overview
X Trains Silver and Gold are trains connected back to back, controlled by the X Rod Sword in either cab. It is summoned when Noel rotates the X Changer 360 degrees, then shifting to the appropriate train and firing. While it seemingly defaults to the X Train Silver commandeered by Lupin X, Noel can switch between the two trains easily. and separate when needed. He pulls from the current cockpit into a central chamber between the two trains, switches to the necessary form for the train with the X Rod Sword (i.e. when turning to Patren from Lupin, he flips the lever only to Rod form to change, then flips it to middle again), and slides into the other train.

X Trains Fire and Thunder are Noel's auxiliary trains that can attack on their own when summoned.

The X Trains have two default Robo forms, X Emperor Slash and X Emperor Gunner. While each robot form has an intricate combination sequence and cockpit transfer, it can switch between the two when X Emperor performs a handstand to switch as Noel uses the X Rod Sword to the form in need.

History
Being created alongside the VS Changers and some of the VS Vehicles, the trains first appeared as Noel set off towards Japan from the GSPO France Headquarters, then confronting a Zarudan Hou as Lupin X. After revealing himself to both the Lupinrangers and Patrangers, he utilized the trains against Zarudan alongside LupinKaiser and destroyed him alongside LupinKaiser Trains.

X Changer
The X Changer (Xチェンジャー) is the transformation device/standard issue firearm of Lupin X/Patren X. It is the combined form of X Train Silver and X Train Gold. Unlike the VS Changers, Noel cannot activate other VS Vehicles with the X Changer, and requires the VS Changers of either the Lupinrangers or Patrangers.

In addition to being his changer, Noel can repair damaged VS Vehicles by analyzing the damage with holograms from his phone then using the X Train Silver as some form of soldering iron, firing a small green energy beam.

Good Cool Kaiser VSX
"Chou X-X Gat-time! (combination sequence) Good Cool Kaiser! V! S! X!"

- announcement before and after completing transformation

Good Cool Kaiser VSX (グッドクールカイザーVSX) is the combination between the main three Trigger Machines, Dial Fighters, GoodStriker, and X Trains. Its combines all 11 VS Vehicles into a single combination through GoodStriker, as his power is to empower the other pieces of the Collection. The combination was his idea to begin with too.

Cockpit-wise, Lupin Blue & Yellow are in the "V" section, Patren 2gou & 3gou are in the "S" section, and Lupin Red, Patren 1gou, & Lupin/Patren X are in the "X" section. However, if somebody is uncooperative in the X cockpit, Goodie can switch him/her out for somebody more favorable. In the instance of the debut, Patoren 1gou was booted down to the S cockpit in favor of Patoren 3gou in the X cockpit. Each cockpit possesses colored lights on the back wall to signify each ranger except Lupin/Patren X, which changes color when a ranger gets switched.

Despite its large, seemingly incumbent size, it is extremely agile and durable, being able to slide with the vehicles by its feet and use its four arms to great effect while taking all of Lymon's attacks. It can use almost all the advantages of the VS Vehicles that compose it, using X Train Gold's gatling compartment when someone's behind it, Blue and Yellow Dial Fighters being able to use their weapons, and X Train Silver being used as a sword while X Train Gold a gun. It can overpower even the likes of Lymon, a Status Gold, the toughest challenge both teams had encountered at the time.

Its finisher is the Good Cool Kaiser: Vehicle Rush Strike. All of the VS Vehicles that make up Good Cool Kaiser VSX separate, leaving behind their colored silhouettes on the body, and ready themselves for the final attack (excluding GoodStriker, and only the cabs of X Trains separate). GCSVSX then manually launches the vehicles towards the opponent in colored dashes, destroying him/her. The VS Vehicles then return to their proper positions.
