Train Won’t Move *FIX*

[PunkBuster]

Robbing the Annesburg train when you get to the tunnel is probably the best method to rob a train, due to the great reward with little to no risk, as you never get a bounty upon completing it. However, the main drawback is if the player wants to rob the train again taking the same route, the train would not move and remain stationary, so they would have to take the train to Saint Denis first, which is a much longer ride and only makes robbing the train more tedious. This issue fixes itself, but it takes about a good half hour or so of your real life time before it can move again.

 

I, however, accidentally found a trick that lets you rob the train without having to wait out the time AND the long ride.

Things you’ll need: a fast horse, x2 dynamite, a gun, that’s it ^^

 

After finishing up your robbery in Annesburg train, go to any train station and take the train to the Annesburg station. After that, save right there on the spot, then load that same save. Once you’re loaded in, you’ll see that the train is moving and won’t stop moving, so IMMEDITAELY whistle your horse over, chase the train and jump onto it. Now that you’re on the train, just wait until the tunnel spot and rob it again and get yourself some easy cash

I had a friend with this issue. Going to let him know about this. I am sure he will be very grateful, thanks OP!

Of course! After doing some more testing, I noticed that the train didn’t show up a few times attempting this, so I’m guessing it’s not GUARANTEED as I thought, which is strange because this worked consecutively before.... however, it’s still something worth trying. If it doesn’t work, maybe try reloading the save again and see if the train shows up. Glad you’ll recommend this to them

I had some issues with the trains for several different missions and thought I was just doing something wrong until I saw more people talking about it online. It seems like just reloading the save almost always works for these issues which is great I guess. I would have thought it would have been patched though by now.

I was bored hunting and went to rob the train as it passed though Bacchus Station.  Not a good idea, well for the horse anyway.  Stupid horse followed along side the train like it always does, right off the edge of the cliff.  So if you're going to rob the train and Bacchus, bring a horse you don't care about losing

I kind of want to do this now to the horse I least like in the stable just to punish him for sucking at horse life.

That sounds worse than I intended.

When i get mad at my horse i get the cheap one from the stables you buy in the mission with Hosea at the beginning of chapter 2.  Then i hitch him to a tree somewhere, and toss a stick of dynamite under him to see how far he'll fly.  Makes me feel better and that dead horse is returned to the stable, so you don't have to buy another one.  Don't do this with any other horse, except the DLC horse, all other horses have permanent death.
