Ryder
CJ and Ryder hijack a National Guard ammunition train rolling out of Ocean Docks. They knock out the guards, unload the boxcars, and outrun the response unit back to Ganton.
Catalyst is a mission in given to protagonist Carl Johnson by Grove Street Families member Lance "Ryder" Wilson from his home in Ganton, Los Santos, San Andreas.
Carl pays another visit to Ryder, who is making his own "water" (marijuana dipped in embalming fluid and then laced with PCP) after he couldn't find the stash he buried in his back yard. While Carl and Ryder are talking, Tenpenny and his accomplices walk into the kitchen to inform the pair that there will be an army munitions train passing through East Los Santos shortly, and that enemy gangs such as the Ballas and Vagos will attempt to rob the cargo on board the freight train as well.
The two immediately depart, arriving at the train only to find the Vagos have ambushed the train first and are attempting to offload munitions, while fighting the Grove Street Families. Once the Vagos are eliminated, the Ballas turn up and attempt to take the train, but Carl defeats them as well. Carl jumps onto the train, which begins moving again. Ryder promptly jumps into the back of his Picador, while a GSF member drives behind the train, with Carl throwing some crates to him; a total of ten crates have to be tossed to Ryder in 90 seconds. If carl fails to throw the required number of boxes by the time they pass Unity Station and enter the tunnel, a short cutscene will play of Carl entering the Picador while Ryder berates him. After acquiring a sufficient amount of munitions crates, a three-star wanted level is attained. They go to the nearby Pay 'n' Spray in Idlewood to evade the police and drive back to Ryder's home.
