This movie takes place in Takato's home city after the end of Digimon Tamers. Jeri has now gotten over Leomon's death. A train is causing chaos all over Takato's city! But this train isn't any normal out of control train, it is actually an evil Digimon!
Upon arriving at the station, Guilmon digivolves to Growlmon to fight this train-like Digimon, named Locomon. After seeing they are no match, Takato sends Guilmon to find Henry and the others for help. Suzy and Henry, along with their Digimon, are at a different train station. They find they can't get on any trains and end up walking back. Rika and Renamon sense that something is wrong, so they go to investigate. Henry and Suzy are still walking when a Digital Field strangely appears before them. They decide to venture into it.
Rika and Renamon arrive to help Takato, who is now on board Locomon. Guilmon finds Kazu and Kenta to get Takato help. Rika and Renamon try their best to get Locomon to stop. Then Beelzemon emerges amongst them and takes a shot at rescuing Takato, but he gets hit.
Meanwhile, Yamaki and his 2 assistants, who have now found out about the rampaging train Digimon, try to look for ways to stop it. He tells his technicians to shift all the train tracks in the area in hope of either slowing or stopping Locomon and his path of destruction. Kazu, Kenta and Guilmon meet up with Henry and Suzy. Guardromon helps assist with the task of train-track-shifting. Yamaki finds out that the kids are on Locomon and tries to get them to get off, but with little luck.
As this all goes on, Rika goes into a trance and remembers flashbacks of her dad. She remembers being with her father as they sang a song about how they'll be together forever. Having remembered the song, she begins to sing it. Takato thinks she has a great voice, but suddenly the reason for Rika's tough attitude and her broken heart t-shirt becomes clear. It is because of her fathers promise, which he broke when he left her mother and never saw her again.
After finally managing to stop Locomon, they find that Parisaimon, a spider-like Digimon, was controlling him. Rika is still in memories of her past, which Parisaimon is also controlling along with all her thoughts.
Locomon digivolves to GrandLocomon, forcing Takato and Guilmon to biomerge to Gallantmon or else they would have no hope of defeating him. They all realize that Parisaimon plans to invade the real world with more of his own kind. Rika eventually snaps out of Parisaimon's mind control. Henry and Rika biomerge to MegaGargomon and Sakuyamon and try stop him from breaking through the Digital Field. Justimon also arrives on the scene as Beelzemon does. Gallantmon is getting beaten badly, but Takato's determination helps fuel enough strength to allow Gallantmon to go to Crimson Mode. After Gallantmon Crimson Mode comes onto the stage, the evil Parisaimon and Grandlocomon are easily defeated.
Afterwards, Jeri organizes a birthday party for Rika to help cheer her up. Kazu tries to get Rika to sing again because Takato told him she can sing well. She doesn't feel like it, so Rumiko sings instead with the song "My Tomorrow".
