Market Station is a railway station located in Market, Los Santos, San Andreas in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.

Description

Market Station is part of the Brown Streak Railroad line, serving the Market district in western Los Santos. Its location within the Market Tunnel makes it the only underground station on the Brown Streak Railroad. It is one of two railway stations in Los Santos, the other being Unity Station in El Corona. The station is served by Brown Streak trains from Las Venturas and San Fierro, with Freight trains occasionally passing through the station. Two railway lines run through the station, though only the line adjacent to the platform is used by trains.

The station's design is rather simple, consisting of a large street-level concourse which leads down to the single bi-directional platform.

Influence

Market Station appears to be based on a station on the Los Angeles Metro Red Line.

 == Description ==
-Market Station is part of the [[Brown Streak Railroad]] line, servicing the western portion of [[Los Santos]], in the [[Market]] district, adjacent to southern [[Vinewood]], and just across the street from [[InterGlobal Films]]. It stands as the only underground transit station in the entire [[State of San Andreas]], and is one of the two rail stations in [[Los Santos]], the other being [[Unity Station]] in [[El Corona]], which is modeled after Union Station in Downtown Los Angeles. Market Station, however, might be modeled after a station on the Metro Red Line.

-The station is relatively simplistic in design, consisting of a radically designed vestibule that leads underground to the platform level, which only side platform services one side of the tracks only. Regardless, trains from both directions tend stop on the same side, towards the platform.

+During the mission [[Snail Trail]], Carl Johnson follows a [[Brown Streak]] from San Fierro to Los Santos, where it stops at Market Station.
-[[Carl Johnson]], hard at work in [[San Fierro]] infiltrating and destroying the [[Loco Syndicate]], as well as establishing numerous business ventures throughout the city, receives some rather unexpected and unpleasant visits from [[C.R.A.S.H.]] officers [[Frank Tenpenny]] and [[Eddie Pulaski]]. Carl has been coerced into performing various unsavory tasks for them while in exile from [[Los Santos]], and escaping to San Fierro has proven ineffective in shaking their watchful gaze.

-During the mission [[Snail Trail]], Eddie Pulaski, a particularly nasty lap-dog for Tenpenny, angrily demands that Carl murder a witness to his corruption that is on his way from San Fierro to meet up with a newspaper reporter in Los Santos.  Carl is forced to follow the [[Brown Streak]] train the witness boards at [[Cranberry Station]] in San Fierro all the way to Market Station. Here, the witness catches a cab and leads Carl to the pier in [[Santa Maria Beach]], where he kills both the witness and the reporter he is meeting.
