Walkthrough

1
As the lift reaches the top, have your assault rifle ready to quickly eliminate a marine. If you placed a tripmine earlier, it might kill the marine. Another tripmine should take out a second marine.
2
A headcrab vent may open; either shoot the headcrabs or run past them.
3
To deal with the third marine, go past the HEV station to a small red-railed balcony. Strafe onto it, then immediately strafe back. The marine should trigger a tripmine.
4
Check for supplies and use the HEV station if needed. Return the way you came, past the underground bunker, and continue down the hall to section c2a1b.
5
Section c2a1b (Going Back): Return to the room with the first aid station and climb down the two ladders. Go through the open doors and down the hall to where section c2a1 reloads.
6
Section c2a1 (Death to the Gargantua): As you turn left in the hall, be ready to shoot a vortigaunt with the assault rifle.
7
Run to the room with a ladder, climb it, and use the crowbar to break the boards and boxes blocking the door to the track control room.
8
Enter the track control room, use the HEV station if needed, and approach the injured guard.
9
Grab the .357 Magnum from next to the guard.
10
Move near the big window to lure the gargantua.
11
Leave the room and jump over the gap in the walkway. Carefully pass the flaming pipe and reenter the large chamber with the gargantua.
12
Strategy for Gargantua: The safest way is to use hand grenades, tossing them between its feet while keeping your distance. If you run out of hand grenades, use AR grenades or return to the power generator area for more hand grenades from the underground bunker room (watch out for a new vortigaunt on the way).
13
Faster Gargantua Strategy: Lead the gargantua to the power coil room. Run through the doorway, turn left, and hug the left wall down the large tunnel. The gargantua may not follow. If it does, run to the power coils' activation switch. You can jump up to hit the switch from the corner on the right past the coils. Stay in this corner until the gargantua is destroyed.
14
If the gargantua doesn't follow you down the tunnel, turn left at the end to enter the coil room. Cross it and go up the steps to the raised walkway with the switch. Activate the coils.
15
Go back down the steps and through the doorway on the right into a small service tunnel. At the other end, push the door open.
16
Go to the start of the large tunnel and move around until the gargantua enters the tunnel after you, then quickly run back through the door you just opened. Stand in the doorway until you hear the gargantua get destroyed by the power coils. If it doesn't, you may need to go up the steps and let it see you on the raised walkway.
17
Break open crates near a power coil for hand grenades.
18
Return to the gargantua's chamber and get on the rail car. Move it forward as far as it will go.
19
Return to the track control room. Use the HEV station if your armor is below 100%. Use the switch by the big window to activate the rail car's mechanism. Look for ammo on a control panel to the right of the window.
20
Jump through the window to shortcut back to the rail car. Get on it and start it moving.
21
After crashing through a barricade, stop the car and use your flashlight to find health packs to the right of the track (these may not always be present).
22
Ride the car to reach the "On a Rail" chapter.

Tips

Use tripmines strategically against the initial marines.
Save frequently when fighting the Gargantua, especially if using grenades.
The Gargantua can be difficult to lure; quicksaving and quickrestoring are essential for the grenade strategy.
Sticking to the left wall in the tunnel can help prevent the Gargantua from following you.
If the Gargantua doesn't follow into the tunnel, you can lure it into the power coils by running back through the service tunnel door.
