Control AWE, like the main game and The Foundation DLC before it, is packed with fun side missions to complete. Some are longer than others, but the Dead In Its Tracks quest is one of the shortest to tick off your checklist. You can access it after forcing Shaded Hartman to withdraw from the AWE Eagle Limited area.
You might only have a small puzzle to complete, but Dead In Its Tracks can be problematic if you're not sure what to do. If you are having difficulty with this particular side mission, allow us to help you.
As you enter the Altered Item train car, you'll see six items sitting on different dining tables. If you walk over to each item and hit the action button, you'll hear - or read if you have captions - parts of an event, which goes horribly wrong, unfolding.
To complete this mission, you must put interact with the objects in the correct order. This allows you to piece together what happened during this altered global event and uncover the mystery behind one of AWE's strangest cases.
The order of the items you need to interact with is: briefcase, conductor's hat, violin, plate of food, hammer, and cogs. Connecting the elements in this way will present a consistent version of events and unlock the door at the end of the cart. If you walk through this well-lit door, someone will ask if you have a ticket before being teleported outside.
You'll receive a new folder to review, along with a few other rewards we won't spoil, for beating this mission.
