Wrong Side of the Tracks

Tenpenny and Pulaski leave Big Smoke's place again. Big Smoke says Three Deep gave him a good lead and has C.J. use Big Smoke's Glendale to drive him to Unity Station. There, he tells C.J. he's looking for a meeting between some San Fierro Rifa and some Vagos, who are making a deal. When Big Smoke sees the Vagos, without the Rifa, standing on a ledge over a train tunnel, he tells C.J. the Vagos "clocked us": beat them there and the Vagos jump on a moving passenger train to make a getaway.
The game wants you to have C.J. take Big Smoke on a Sanchez to speed along the locomotive so Big Smoke can shoot them with a Tec9. The BradyGames guide and most others say to stay just to the right of the track to the right of the train, avoiding the car the train hits, the oncoming train, and taking the high road by the track when Big Smoke says to.

If C.J. lags just a bit behind it, it may help to have him stop for a second or two, let the train slow down, then speed to the targets.
- once Big Smoke picks a target, he keeps shooting at it till it's down unless C.J. drives far enough away from the targets and back that Big Smoke picks another one.
- don't waste shots on the Vago in the back of the four--he falls off the train at the first turn. Don't waste time on Vagos hanging from the train, either, since they don't take damage.
When the gangsters are Vago memories of the past (sorry), have C.J. get back to the Big Smoke's home.
C.J. gets Respect.
