You control a locomotive, you can speed up/slow down and swap tracks. The top of the screen shows the side view. The bottom 1/3 of the screen shows the top view.
The aim is to reach the end of each section without being run into by the opposition and without running red lights. Your weapon is smoke. The longer you hold the smoke button the higher it
goes.
The 'super' bit comes in because you can hit the super locomotive button and the loco graphic changes - you can go much faster and your smoke appears much faster.
The music was written by Yellow Magic Orchestra (YMO) - and is still
available.
