Ever since Chapter 5, a train has been going around the Battle Royale island inFortnite. The train has always contained better loot containers to incentivize players to attempt to get on it and raid it. However, it has been improved with a high-rarity loot vault for Chapter 6 Season 2.
There are plenty of chests inside the vault on the train, and gamers who dare to break it open will also be able tocollect Dill Bits, an exclusive currency that can be exchanged at Black Markets. This guide will show gamers how they can open the Train Vault inFortnite.
How to Get on the Train in Fortnite
The train will continuously go around the island throughout a match. To get on the train inFortnite, players can either wait for it to ride past them, they can get a car and attempt to catch up to it, or they can land nearby.
If players want to get into the Train Vault badly, they should land very close by, quickly loot a landmark, and then run towards the train as it’s about to pass. This way, they can get some weapons to take down the turrets - or any opponents that might show up -, and they can ensure that it’s not too late and that they’re the first ones to attempt the heist.
Players can easily get on top of a train car by jumping and mantling on it. Alternatively, they can jump for a high location down onto it. The train has five cars, and gamers will want to memorize what’s on top of each car so they can plan out a strategy:
How to Open the Train Vault in Fortnite
To open the Train Vault inFortnite, gamers will have to reach the third car andplace Thermite on the vault door. This has to be done twice, asthe Train Vault door will only open with the second load of Thermite.
The Thermite takes a few seconds before it explodes and fully damages the door, and since gamers have to repeat this process, they’ll have to stay on the train for a significant amount of time.It is wise to destroy the turrets to prevent them from hurting the player or any teammate they might have with them. Additionally, train turrets drop Thermite upon destruction.
The door will explode with the second Thermite, allowing players to enter the Train Vault. However, once the door has been breached, hostile NPCs will begin to spawn and attack to protect the loot inside. Players will want to avoid their fire or eliminate them to freely search the vault’s contents. Here is a video demonstrating how to reach the inside of the Train Vault inFortnite:
