Time Train

The Time Train was a time travelling locomotive featured in the Wild West side-quest in March of the year 1871. The idea for the Time Train may most likely be based on the Jules Verne Time Train from Back to The Future.

Information
The particular steam train used was supposedly taken by the Time Agents during the mid-19th Century and converted into a prototype time machine in order to transport goods to the future. In the Wild West quest, the train carries gold stolen from the Pine Lake Bank to be delivered to the future for Crimson 's ambitions that aren't mentioned in the quest.

In the quest, during the early morning of March 16th, 1871, the train would depart from Cape Dun and make its way around Pine Island until it reached an unfinished bridge just outside of Byroad, where it vanishes to the future. According to an email sent to a computer from Crimson, inside of the Agent Hideout, it says that the train was targeted for October 10th, 2014, at 3:20 A.M.

Description
In the quest, the player is required to destroy the train and prevent the shipment of the gold to the future to stop Crimson's schemes. In order to properly board the train, the player must use the Time Slower, which was given to the player by Clint Westwood earlier in the Agent Hideout. Once aboard the player must eliminate the three agents which are onboard, and pull the lever in the cabin to sabotage the train and destroy its time travel equipment.

Aspects
One part of the train's most notable features is the two parallel red line addons that seem to stabilize the train as it goes through temporal displacement. In the cabin, there can be seen a time input area that features the said date that was mentioned in the computer email by Crimson, along with other computers and monitors scattered inside as well. The burner and other locomotive equipment is also visible from inside the cabin.

Cars
On the 1st car, there are several wooden logs stacked on top of each other, and on the 2nd car, there is the large, stolen gold shipment that is guarded by an agent standing on top of it. On the third car is supposedly essential time travel equipment for the train. When the player sabotages the train, this car is seen on fire and billowing smoke into the air as the train continues on the tracks.

Fate
Depending on the player's actions, the train could be destroyed/sabotaged or left to go to the future is the player is unsuccessful. If the player is successful in sabotaging the train, then it will continue on its way along the tracks until it reaches the unfinished bridge where it will crash in a spectacular explosion. If the player is unsuccessful in sabotaging it, the train will disappear right at the edge of the bridge to the future, where it can be seen.
