Ressha Gattai ToQ-Oh (烈車合体トッキュウオー Ressha Gattai Tokkyūō, Train Combination Limited Express King) is the main Giant Robo in Ressha Sentai ToQger.
Overview
A train-themed giant robo piloted by the ToQgers. It is armed with the crossing gate-themed Fumikiriken (フミキリケン ) which can switch between Sword and Gun Modes much like the ToQ Blasters, only the modes are announced by railway bell warnings that last for a couple of seconds.
When the combination is completed, the PA system announces "Thank you for boarding. ToQ-Oh is completed." (「毎度ご乗車ありがとうございます。トッキュウオー、完成いたします」 "Maido go jōsha arigatō-gozaimasu. Tokkyūō, kansei itashimasu").
The Ressha also serve as the base of the ToQgers. When the Ressha are close to an area occupied by Shadow Line forces, the lights in the interior go out for 2 seconds.
ToQ-Oh's finishing attack with the Fumikiriken in Sword Mode is the Fumikiriken Ressha Slash (フミキリケン烈車スラッシュ Fumikiriken Ressha Surasshu), where the lights on the Fumikiriken flash, then a manifestation of the Ressha appear in front of the target along with copies of the Fumikiriken functioning like actual descending railroad crossing gates, distracting it long enough for ToQ-Oh slide in to cleave the target in two with a powerful slash. When General Schwarz hijacked ToQ-Oh, he created his own variant of Fumikiriken Ressha Slash, where the lights on the Fumikiriken flash, then a manifestation of the Kuliner appear in front of the target along with copies of the Fumikiriken functioning like actual descending railroad crossing gates, then the background turned into the Castle Terminal and ToQ-Oh slide in a railway to cleave the target in two with a powerful slash.
However, other finishers are also demonstrated in the series. Among them are:
- With the Fumikiriken in Gun Mode, the finisher is the Fumikiri ToQ Shot (フミキリトッキュウショット Fumikiri Tokkyū Shotto), where ToQ-Oh fires a volley of shots at the target in quick succession until the target falls.
- By the combine forces of Ressha Gattai SafariGaOh, they can perform a combined finisher, ToQ Safari Double Kick (トッキュウサファリダブルキック Tokkyuu Safari Daburu Kikku), where both ToQ-Oh and SafariGaOh slide on a pair of railways that bring them to their target before delivering flying kick attacks.

Support Ressha
The Support Ressha (サポート烈車 Sapōto Ressha) are a series of auxiliary Ressha the ToQgers and ToQ-Oh can use when the standard Ressha are not enough. They are summoned through the ToQ Changer and their respective ToQ Ressha. They can combine with ToQ-Oh with the command of "Ressha Armament" (烈車武装 Ressha Busō).
Most of the Support Ressha have been lost during the expansion of the Shadow Line, cutting them off from the Rainbow Line, making it the secondary mission of the ToQgers to find the lost Ressha before General Schwarz takes them for his own.
- The first of the Support Ressha, the Shield Ressha (シールドレッシャー Shīrudo Ressha) is an armored bullet train-themed Ressha that replaces the left forearm of ToQ-Oh. During formation, it splits in half to form a oval-shaped shield, revealing 5 lights in the same colors of the core ToQgers. During it's first summoning, the ToQgers didn't knew how to combine with it at first, making the Shield Ressha hit ToQ-Oh on accident.

During times where the darkness gathered by the Shadow Line gets so thick it severs the track of the Rainbow Line, this Ressha can be used to jump the gap by launching the 5 cars it contains off the built-in ramp to deal with the source of the problem. These little cars are powered by a ToQger's Imagination, but they don't last long outside of the Car Carrier Ressha's range; also care must be exercised, as using too much Imagination will send the car flying further than what the user might intend.

Despite General Schwarz's tactics when he went to grab the Ressha for himself and handily bested the ToQgers on foot when they went back for the Tank Ressha, the ToQ Ressha of this Support Ressha was found by Hikari. By itself, the Tank Ressha can extend a hose to insert into another Ressha to pump a special fuel to temporarily supercharge a Ressha's performance.
- The fourth of the Support Ressha, the Police Ressha (ポリスレッシャー Porisu Ressha) is a police-themed Ressha that replaces both forearms of ToQ-Oh. This was one of the Resshas which were lost during the Shadow Line's expansion. It was found by Right accidentally after being stolen by Soujiki Shadow. It is armed with a high-powered gun and a handcuff.
- Claw Ressha (クローレッシャー Claw Ressha) is a tiger-themed support ressha that appears in the ToQGer Hyper Battle Video and replaces the right forearm of ToQ-Oh.

- Cho ToQ-Oh: to be added
Super Sentai Battle Base
ToQ-Oh is among the vast pantheon of Mecha which are available in the mobile game Super Sentai Battle Base.
Notes
- ToQ-Oh is the first train-themed mech since Kyoretsu-Oh.
- ToQ-Oh is the first primary train-themed mech that is used by the team, unlike the Matsumi siblings' Grand Liner, Hikaru's Travelion, and Kyoretsu-Oh, who is only piloted by Go-On Red.
- Similar to Grand Liner and Kyoretsu-Oh, the arms are formed by seperate mechs, not pieces of the Mecha like Travelion.
- ToQ-Oh's weapon, Fumikiriken, literally translates to "Railway Crossing Sword" (踏切剣 )
- The Fumikiriken also shares similar elements to the Double Engine Soul Kankanbar from both appearance and its uses.
- Also, the Fumikiriken Ressha Slash resembles Den-O's Liner Form Densha Giri finisher, since both ToQ-Oh and Den-O Liner Form finish off the enemy by riding on top of the rail line before slashing the enemy with a sword.
- ToQ-Oh is the first mech to combine with an actual Kamen Rider vehicle. In the previous Superhero Taisen movies and crossover, the previous Sentai teams of those films merely used the powers of a Rider to boost their attacks and/or create a new mech formation.
- However there was no actual DenLiner boots in the film, the Den-O Ressha parts were just CGI.
- ToQ-Oh's combinations with Ressha based on past Sentai Mechas is reminiscent of GokaiOh's Greater Power combinations with the Legend Sentai Mecha in Gokaiger.
- ToQ-Oh's combinations by removing the first compartment is similar to the way Gosei Great can remove its Headders and replace it with another set of Headders.
- ToQ-Oh's relying on Imagination Energy to keep moving is similar method to Daizyujin from Kyōryū Sentai Zyuranger and Go-Buster Oh from Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters as both mecha is heavily depending on reliable sources of energy (Gaiatron and Enetron) in order to function properly.
- Unlike Daizyujin and Go-Buster Oh, where their energy comes from reliable sources on Earth, the ToQ-Oh's energy is made from ToQger's very own Imagination as their source.
- ToQ-Oh Tank's Tank Upper finisher is similar to last season's Kyoryuzin Macho as both mecha in this form uppercut the enemies up to the air before destroying it.
- Co-incidentially enough, their components, Zyudenryu Ankydon and Tank Ressha, both shares cyan in colour.
- Like the Gokaiger's GokaiGalleon, the Ressha also serves as the base for the ToQger's.
- Interestingly, Ticket, Conductor and Wagon stay inside while the Ressha are in ToQ-Oh mode just like Navi when GokaiOh is formed he is inside.
- Strangely even when GokaiOh is formed the rooms do not become vertical. It is unknown if it is the same case for ToQ-Oh.
- In Station 2: We Are Here it is shown that ToQ-Oh can release its combined ressha to dodge the attack of the enemy, but in Station 16: The Dangerous Extraordinary Ressha, Cho ToQ-Oh returns to being Resshas and then recombines.
- ToQ-Oh Drill was shown to have immediately attacked Ring Shadow after ToQ-Oh and Drill Ressha combined and not even a scene of ToQ-Oh Drill doing a pose but in the preview of TV-Asahi the Giant Robo was shown to have momentarily stopped.
