Based on the SD40-2 locomotive, Freight is a fully interactive train featured on Grand Theft Auto: [[San Andreas]]. It is only available in a gray color.  
The '''Freight''' is a train in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]], based on the SD40-2 locomotive. It is only available in a gray color. Like the [[Brown Streak]], the Freight can be used to start [[Freight Train Challenge|delivery missions]] which have to be completed in order for the player to achieve 100% game completion.


Like the [[Brown Streak]], Freight also has a set of delivery missions; both have to be completed in order for the player to achieve 100% game completion. Rockstar also added some realistic effects to the train, particularly the ability to derail it when the speed is too intense for the train to handle (above 47 MPH, like the Brown Streak).
==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 cinematic view mode is the only view available. The player cannot change the position of the camera like when driving other vehicles.

Except for the derailment issue, the train is indestructible. However, even when derailed, the individual segments of the train remain intact, and will not be destroyed, even if they land on their side or upside down. When picking up speed at over 60 MP/H, 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. Strangely, the vehicles that are caught dead in its tracks will not explode, but instead will be pushed away.

*[[Brown Streak]]
There are no 1st/3rd person views when driving or travelling in the train, and the cinematic view mode is the only view available. However, some [[PC|Trainers]] can offer different viewpoints.
 
 
==Modifications==
 
There are also some special modifications available for this train. There are versions of the Union Pacific, Santa Fe, Burlington Northern and much more.
