GTA San Andreas: Wrong Side of the Tracks Walkthrough

GTA San Andreas walkthrough · Los Santos

Keep Big Smoke beside the train long enough to eliminate all four Vagos on its roof. The key is a clear shooting angle, not simply riding as close to the train as possible.

Mission walkthrough

  1. Reach Unity Station

    Drive Smoke to the station, then take the Sanchez with him aboard. Accelerate alongside the front of the train as the chase starts.

  2. Leave room to the right

    Ride on the right-hand side with a useful gap between the bike and the train. If you hug the carriage, Smoke’s shots can hit its side instead of the men above. Match the train’s speed near the front carriage and give him an uninterrupted angle.

  3. Read the railway hazards

    Watch for the vehicle on the tracks and the approaching train. Follow Smoke’s warning to use the elevated side route where needed, then rejoin the railway without jumping into an obstacle. Steady driving is more valuable than repeated high-speed collisions.

  4. Check the remaining targets

    Keep lining up surviving Vagos until every required target is down. Do not assume the chase is complete because you have reached a tunnel or bridge; the objective must change.

  5. Take Smoke home

    After the last target falls, leave the railway safely and drive back to Smoke’s house. There is no need to continue following the train.

Key point

If Smoke fires continuously but nobody falls, move farther from the carriage while remaining level with the targets. Improve the angle before trying a faster or riskier route.
