How to Go Through Trains in Subway Surfers
November 17, 2025
So, you want to know how to go through trains in Subway Surfers? Well, the short answer is that you can't actually go through them. That would be cheating! But you can get on top of them, which is almost as cool. It’s a great way to avoid obstacles and collect more coins.
Hopping on Top of Trains
The easiest way to get on top of the trains in Subway Surfers is by using the ramps you see at the end of some of them. Just run up the ramp, and you'll find yourself on the roof of the train. From there, you can jump from one train to another, which is a lot of fun.
I remember when I first started playing, I kept trying to jump directly onto the trains from the ground. I must have crashed a hundred times! I was getting so frustrated. Then, my friend pointed out the ramps. I felt so silly, but once I started using them, my scores got so much better. It's funny how a small trick can make such a big difference.
The Train Glitch
Now, there is a way to kind of go "through" a train, but it's a glitch. It's not a feature of the game, so it might not always work. To do the train glitch, you need to swipe to the side just as you're about to hit the corner of a train. If you time it perfectly, you'll go right through the corner of the train.
I tried this glitch a few times after seeing a video about it online. It's really hard to get the timing right! I spent a whole afternoon trying to master it. I managed to do it a couple of times, but I also crashed a lot. It’s a fun trick to try if you’re looking for a challenge, but I wouldn't rely on it to get a high score.
Whether you're jumping on top of trains or trying out the train glitch, there are lots of cool tricks to learn in Subway Surfers. If you want to learn more about the game, check out our post on how to play Subway Surfers with friends.
