Half-Life Hints
How can I use the tram car?
1 of 5: To use a tram, you must hop on it and use your Use key while facing its control panel.
2 of 5: You will then be able to shift the gears of the tram. Push up to go forward and accelerate, push down to decelerate or go in reverse.
3 of 5: You have to be careful riding the tram in this area.
4 of 5: If you go too far, you fly out into the radioactive waste that has flooded the area. You do not want to end up swimming through the green sludge.
5 of 5: Back off of the tram when you lose the control display, then get back on it after it stops. You can then jump-crouch onto the nearby ledge.
