Half-Life 2 Hints
How can I make it across the tracks?
1 of 9: Look around. There's got to be a way to get to the torn-up-looking buildings over on the other side.
2 of 9: Near one of the force fields is a platform with a ladder on the wall, but it's too high up for you to reach.
3 of 9: You're going to need some help getting up to it.
4 of 9: A train comes through a short time after you emerge outdoors. If this hasn't happened yet, just wait for it.
5 of 9: Notice that it stops before passing entirely through the force field near the ladder.
6 of 9: Maybe you could jump to the ladder platform from on top of one of the train cars!
7 of 9: Go to the midpoint of the nearby stairs and jump onto the nearest train car from there.
8 of 9: Then jump over to the other car and then to the platform with the ladder.
9 of 9: As soon as you do, several cops will run up the stairs over on the side of the tracks you came from.
