Learn about the Train map in Counter-Strike: Source, its history in the competitive pool, and its aesthetic.

History: Train was part of the 5-map competitive pool in Spring 2014. It was removed after ESL One Katowice that year, alongside Nuke, due to map balance concerns. Two years later, it received a significant update and was reintroduced. While not as popular as Nuke once was, its aesthetic makes it a unique addition for players.

Teams: Counter-Terrorists are Seal Team Six, and Terrorists are Balkans.

Map Features: The aesthetic of Train allows for excellent AWPing alleys and creative peeking angles. This design encourages long-distance engagements over the bombsites.

Tips
  • Utilize the long alleys for effective AWPing.
  • Experiment with creative peeking angles to gain an advantage.
  • Focus on long-distance fights to control the bombsites.
