Navigate the warehouse and the treacherous train yard in Left 4 Dead. Find weapons, use pipe bombs, and prepare for the final church defense.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    From the warehouse, head towards the safe room. Check doorways and bathrooms for weapons and pipe bombs.
  2. 2
    Exit the safe house into the train yard. Search train cars for Infected or use pipe bombs.
  3. 3
    Climb the tower in the center of the train yard for upgraded weapons.
  4. 4
    Check the small building to the right of the tower for items.
  5. 5
    Proceed to the loading platform. Search the building before climbing the walkway for fuel cans or propane tanks.
  6. 6
    Climb the walkway and check rooms for ammo and upgraded weapons.
  7. 7
    If the Horde attacks on the loading platform, place fuel cans/propane tanks on the platform or train and ignite them. Watch for Smokers on the roof.
  8. 8
    Walk onto the train and drop down. Watch for Infected in wooded areas and be aware of Smokers and Hunters ambushing from trees.
  9. 9
    If a Tank appears, use the open road to flee while attacking.
  10. 10
    Pass the flaming church bus and check the nearby shed for a first-aid station.
  11. 11
    Continue down the road until an overturned truck blocks the path. Enter the one-story house on the right.
  12. 12
    Fight through the house, anticipating Infected and Smokers on the ridge and potentially ambushing from above.
  13. 13
    Be aware of Witches, often found in or around the house, possibly in the shed. Check the shed table for ammo and other items.
  14. 14
    Search rooms inside the house for tools, fuel cans (kitchen supply closet), and other weapons/items.
  15. 15
    After exiting the house, head towards an ambulance for pain pills, a first-aid kit, and/or an oxygen tank.
  16. 16
    The path to Riverside is blocked; take the alternate route through the cemetery.
  17. 17
    In the cemetery, watch for Infected near tombstones. Use fuel cans and molotov cocktails from the shack at the entrance to clear Infected.
  18. 18
    Approach the church and check the side room for ammo and upgraded weapons.
  19. 19
    The survivor in the safe house will initially refuse entry. Stock up and prepare for the Horde.
  20. 20
    The survivor will sound the church bells, attracting a massive Horde from all angles.
  21. 21
    Prepare by taking a fuel can near the sandbags and lighting it near the cemetery.
  22. 22
    Stay inside the chapel for defense, as it's the largest area with access to entry points.
  23. 23
    Be aware that the Infected may break through the wall into the ammo room, creating another entry point. Avoid hiding there.
Tips
  • The train cars in the train yard offer good cover for Infected.
  • Pipe bombs are effective for clearing groups of Infected in the train yard.
  • Fuel cans and propane tanks can be used to create fire walls on the loading platform.
  • Smokers can be found on the roof of the loading platform area.
  • Infected can hide in wooded areas along the road.
  • Smokers and Hunters often hide in trees to ambush players.
  • The road after the church bus offers ample space to evade a Tank.
  • Infected and Smokers may ambush from the ridge to the right of the house.
  • Witches can be found in or around the house, sometimes in the shed.
  • The cemetery shack contains fuel cans and molotov cocktails.
  • The chapel is the best defensive position during the final Horde assault.
  • The Infected may breach the wall into the ammo room, creating an additional entry point.
  • Strategy by Dybo: To easily defend against the final Horde, go outside the church and through a window (or around the church to a dead end with a window). Get all survivors in that corner. The Horde will mostly come from the front, with a few attempting to jump on top. One survivor can prevent them from gaining a foothold by smacking upwards. Return to the safehouse and kill any special infected emerging from the door.
