The Freight Train Challenge is a side mission in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.

Mission[]

The mission involves the player transporting freight around the state in a Brown Streak or a Freight under a time limit. The challenge is available after completing Yay Ka-Boom-Boom. Like most side missions, it is activated by pressing the sub-mission button. The challenge is completed when both levels have been completed; it is failed when either the train is derailed, the time limit expires, a station is missed, if the vehicle is abandoned or if the sub-mission button is pressed. Completing the mission is required to achieve 100% completion.

Stops[]

Levels[]

  • Level One: Stop at five stations.
  • Level Two: Stop at five stations.

Reward[]

  • $150 for arriving at the first 4 stations during Level One with 20 seconds or more left.
  • $300 for arriving at the first 4 stations during Level Two with 20 seconds or more left.
  • $50,000 for the completion of both levels and free train rides. (To be precise, Carl has the option of riding in a passenger car of a Brown Streak rather than jacking the engine, which is the option prior to completing the mission.)

Trivia[]

  • Despite the mission's name, it is possible to use a Brown Streak to complete the challenge.
  • The speed displayed is actually in meters per second (m/s), and not in miles per hour as commonly thought.
  • The distance displayed in this mission is actually the shortest distance between two stations, and not the track distance.
  • Starting this side mission will clear the player's wanted level.
  • There is a glitch when the player abandons the mission by clicking the sub-mission button, the player will briefly have a third-person view of the train, unlike the default cinematic view.
