The Time Travelers[]
At the end of the movie, Doc marries Clara Clayton (played by Mary Steenburgen) and they appear with a modified locomotive equipped with a "flux capacitor," traveling with their children Jules and Verne.

Method of Travel[]
Using a flux capacitor powered by plutonium, Doc Brown's modified DeLorean DMC-12 can through time once it reaches 88 mph. However, refined gasoline isn't available in 1885 and the characters use a train to reach the speed they need. Later, Doc turns the train into a time machine (one that can fly) and travel with his new wife Clara and sons, Jules and Verne.
