Half-Life 2 Hints
Section 2: Outside the Train Station (d1_trainstation_02)
1 of 8: Ignore the padlocked fence door on the left and go up the nearby stairs to get to another door that you can open with the "Use item" key.
2 of 8: It leads to a small and dirty foyer where a cop insists on blocking the only other exit.
3 of 8: After you're past him, you can make your way through the rest of the train station building and out to the huge outdoor plaza where you can see the mega-tall Combine citadel off in the distance.
4 of 8: TIP: If you need help finding the building's exit doors, just follow the citizens who go through the food line and then out.
5 of 8: Since none of the precinct access gates in the plaza will let you through, you'll need to explore around until you find an open street that leaves the plaza.
6 of 8: TIP: It's off to the left of the doors that lead back into the train station. (Left as you face those doors, that is.)
7 of 8: Down the street, you'll find a couple more cop-blocked areas (the second of which has a huge strider stomping by it), plus a little grassy side alley with a fence that you need to get over.
