Lynchwood

Robbing the bank was one thing, but if you’re really going to get in the craw of the local sheriff, you’re going to have to take out the Eridium supply train. Make your way south out of the train station and ride the elevator up to the Death Row Refinery. The area on the right is a demolition depository complete with a remote-controlled bomb cart. Locate the lever to signal the release of the bomb cart, and then turn around and locate a similar lever on the other side of the clearing; you must use this second lever to trap the bomb cart.

Pull the lever to signal the remote-controlled cart and start the five minute countdown. Don’t follow the tracks; sprint straight across to the other lever and pull it to close the entrance to the mines. This traps the bomb cart and allows you to pick it up (try not to think about how heavy such a contraption would be on earth).

Pull the second lever to trap the bomb cart before it enters the mine.

Carry the bomb cart south toward the other mine cart tracks and set the remote-controlled bomb cart down in the space identified on-screen. The cart soon automatically starts chugging along toward a trestle in the distance. Climb the stairs in the northwest corner of the refinery area and locate the detonation plunger. Wait for the bomb cart to move into position underneath the Eridium train, and press the plunger to blow the bridge—and the train—to pieces.
