Its legal status makes it used either almost exclusively either within Bretonia, by smugglers, or in the independent systems.  It should be noted that even in space where its legal status is unregulated or even specifically permitted, harassment from local authorities is to be expected.  Despite this, it is still the largest transport available to the [[Junkers ID]] with the [[Pilgrim]] in a close second.}}

It's a disappointment that you don't get the portable cargo pods that you get with the lawful trains of Sirius, and your instead left with three permanent orange drab pods. The maneuverability has also been greatly reduced, but even though I have not been able to myself, I ''have'' seen many pilots of this ship escape from even the most hopeless situations with their hulls intact; Which tells us that this ship makes an impressive and useful getaway car when being plunged into heavily monitored zones; such as [[Planet Manhattan|Manhattan]] Orbit or [[New Berlin]]. But for some reason I get an annoying vibe from this ship, it just seems too informal for me. But it doesn’t exclude the fact that this is an extraordinary model. My advice is stick to unpopulated smuggling routes and you’ll make your booty there.}}

The Pirate Train is the largest transport-class vessel available for the Sirius pirates. Although offering an increased cargo bay, this ship has weaker defensive capabilities than the Pirate Transport. Using the Pirate Train on long and risky routes is considered inefficient; however, it comes in most handy on shorter routes between nearby unlawful bases. Ships of this type are also used for supplying pirate capital ship fleets with H-Fuel and other necessary goods.

Handling

  • This ship is too large to use docking bays, it must use mooring points.
