If you light a flare here, you'll notice some goodies under the floor grates.

To get them, follow the dark, twisting side passage from which the mutant emerged...

...until you come to a crawlspace on the right.

Crawl through into the area below the floor of the steamy room. Crawl around to the right...

...and pick up shotgun shells and a rocket. As you do this, another super mutant passes overhead and runs into the passageway where you just were.

Turn around and crawl back to the passageway.

Lara won't target the mutant while crouching in the tunnel, so crawl out and kill it. Again, 3 grenades should do it. (Remember, you want to conserve Desert Eagle ammo for the final boss.)

Then continue along the twisty passage...

...to the steamy room, only now you're on the other side of the chain-link fence.

Climb the long ladder to the top...

...and dismount on the right.

Press the 2 buttons in this hallway.

The first opens the exit back to the track. You'll return here shortly.

The second button opens another door. Go through...

...and follow the hallway to a crawlspace. Crawl in, turn right...

...and continue up a long ramp.

At the top, turn around and drop out of the crawlspace into a small room with a window.
