The Freight is a train in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, based on the EMD SD40-2 locomotive. It is only available in a gray color. Like the Brown Streak, the Freight can be used to start delivery missions which have to be completed in order for the player to achieve 100% game completion.
Description
The train has the ability to derail when the speed is too intense for the train to handle at about 47 m/s (~170 kph). The train begins to rattle and a single turn can instantly derail the train, but when landing on the water, it will not sink, but float and bob instead. It can also plow through vehicles those who are unlucky enough to be caught right in its tracks. Except for the derailment issue, the train is indestructible. However, even when derailed, the individual segments of the train remain intact, and cannot be destroyed in any way unlike most other vehicles. A single hit from an NPC-driven train is enough to kill the player, even if driving an armoured vehicle such as a tank.
A cinematic view mode is the only view available. The player cannot change the position of the camera like when driving other vehicles.
The freight itself is presumably loaded off the Freight Train Station in El Corona north of Unity Station or at Sobell Railyards.
