− | *Do not waste bullets trying to shoot the gang members, as the train is too high for the player to inflict any damage against them. |
||
− | *The best location to chase the train from is the far-right of the adjacent track, because if the bike is too close to the train, Smoke will shoot at the train and if it is too far away, his aim will be poor. |
||
− | *Just above the [[Los Santos Storm Drain (3D Universe)|storm drain]] that the train passes, there is a ramp that is level with the train, and can be used to drive the bike on top of it. Not only does this give Smoke an easy shot at the Vagos, the player can also shoot at the gang members, assuming that they have a drive-by weapon such as a [[TEC-9]]. |
||
− | *Do not attempt to dismount the motorbike and shoot at the Vagos on foot, as the train is travelling too fast and the mission will fail if the player falls too far away from the train. |
||
− | *An easy way to complete this mission is to get a [[sniper rifle]] with at least 20 rounds, go far enough ahead of the train, get off the bike and kill the engineer so the train will stop and kill the Vagos. Note: once you kill the train driver, don't get too close to the train or it will start driving by itself. |
||
− | *Another way to complete the mission, is to follow the road that runs parallel to the railway line. Turn the corner and keep going until you get to the [[The Well Stacked Pizza Co.|Well Stacked Pizza Co]], turn left and head down the road until you see an apartment block on your right. Stop near the wall and get off your bike, then jump up onto the platform next to the railway tracks. Get the fastest weapon you have and shoot the Vagos as the train rounds the curve. This also convenient when the mission ends and you have to take Big Smoke home again. |

Revision as of 06:56, 12 June 2021
Not to be confused with Wong Side of the Tracks, a similarly named side mission in GTA Liberty City Stories.
- Tenpenny: "That's right Carl. I got my eye on you."
- CJ: "And? Like I give a fuck."
- ―Carl Johnson meeting Frank Tenpenny and Eddie Pulaski in the opening cutscene
Wrong Side of the Tracks is a mission in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, given to Carl Johnson by Big Smoke from his house in Idlewood.
Mission
Tenpenny and Pulaski are seen leaving Big Smoke's house by the garage. Carl arrives and Smoke tells him that they have to go to the train at Unity Station.
When the pair arrive, Smoke explains that the Vagos and San Fierro Rifa are "cutting some kind of deal," and intends to crash the meeting. However, it is actually an ambush and the Vagos attempt to escape by train. Carl and Smoke use a Sanchez parked nearby, to chase down the train to kill all four Vagos thugs, whilst avoiding obstacles such as; oncoming car blocks and incoming trains going the opposite direction. If successful, Carl and Smoke will have eliminated all Vagos before the train reaches the Frederick Bridge, connecting Los Santos and Las Venturas. The two then clear the scene, and CJ takes Big Smoke back to his house.
Mission Objectives
In order to complete the mission the player must:
- Drive to Unity Station.
- Get on the motorbike with Big Smoke, chase down the Vagos gang members and take them out!
- Keep up with the front carriage of the train so Big Smoke can shoot the Vagos gang members.
- You left Big Smoke behind go get him! (if Big Smoke falls off the Sanchez.)
- Take Big Smoke back to his house.
