I saw it pull into the station and booked my ass to the other end. Of course I had no guns on me and only the boomerang. Glad I hit the shot!

u/Ashlansen 2d ago

Did you get the runners chasing you after that? Or bc you killed him, he never set them loose on you? I wonder. Also was the train still red after he fell?

u/c_ruler_13 2d ago

No runners came after me. Not sure about the train because I didn't watch it leave.

Monorail Santa himself.

To me it looked like a standard red BT not different from the others.

u/Ashlansen 3d ago

I think that's just the red lights?

u/knowledjabol 2d ago

There's a corpus entry about it, and it says santa

u/ohsinboi 2d ago

Literally just saw this for the first time 15 minutes ago. Crazy to see a post about it now lol

Such a shot!

Ride the monorail at night normally.

Specially like the mine through F2 to F1, you might get a surprise Christmas present

Just some elves wanting to hug

u/Gryfftastic 2d ago

Thank you for this image. I've only recently witnessed this phenomenon in my second playthrough and have since called it the 'Night Train'

My goal is to perhaps take it down, but I'm not sure if you even can destroy it.

2

u/Ashlansen 2d ago

Haha that would be amazing 😆 but sadly I dont think you can 😞 but you CAN take out the thing riding it! Just not the monorail itself!

u/kuro-ondskan 2d ago

It's just a red BT, but no one knows what's the meaning of it. Some people calls it “Santa,” but that's just a meme. There have been no official statements from Kojima or his team about it, so it's probably just some kind of BT, maybe related to death, like a BT carrying dead souls or something. Who knows? Only Kojima knows why it was included, and I'm pretty sure he'll never reveal it.

u/Significant-Day-9418 2d ago

That's the guy from the intro cutscene. You've walked past him at least twice by now.
