Once Rachet has collected the Infobot on the train, the train stops at another mid-air station. This is the end of the line. Out on the platform, there's one of those nasty land mine robots up to his tricks. Watch where he lays his mines.

Other than for land mines, the station platform is bascially deserted. Near the locomotive, there is a pile of crates off to the right, with a detenator red crate in the middle. Walk into the red crate, stand back, and watch for major fireworks. Tons of bolts come flying out. Restore Rachet's health with a Nanotech health sphere, and walk down to the observation deck area and grab all the goodies, more bolts and a second Nanotech health sphere,as well.

Come back to the station platform, walk around the land mines and take out the robot with a glove bomb. Through the far archway, there's another infobot. He is the end of level infobot, that let's you know all city missions are complete. Nice to know, but we are still on a mission to get lots of bolts. It's more fun exploring the city when you have no competition around. Do NOT stand on the elevator pad just yet!. It goes all the way down to the courtyard by the Gadgetron kiosk.

Off to the right, just below the terrace, there's another courtyard below. It's full of crates and goodies. You can hover jump and glide down there. Once cleaned out, you can heli-jump back up to the terrace and ride the elevator down. There are a number of areas in the city where you can access upper ledges using heli-jumps. Go explore all the areas you have been to already. I found another 1,000 bolts making my total so far, 5,000 bolts. Whack the streetlamps again.

Before returning to the shuttle ship, it's time to visit the Gadgetron Kiosk. We have enough bolts to buy some new things. Pay 2,400 bolts to buy the Blaster. Don't forget to fill up on ammo on your other weapons. Once done, go back to the ship, check your mission status by pressing [select], and then go to Planet Aridia.

The location of the 3rd gold bolt on this planet was found quite by accident. Because the tunnel is located under an existing pathway, it was not detected on the map even with the map-o-matic enhancement.

Walk to the Gadgetron kiosk by the main city square. Behind the fence, there is a small balcony ledge down one level over the edge. Jet-hover down to the ledge. There are streams of cars flying right underneath you. Hover down and into the tunnel. This is so cool! Load the blaster and peg off 20 cars as they fly by, just for fun. They will give up bolts. Whack all the crates and grab the gold bolt. There's a hover taxi waiting at the other end to take you back to the shuttle pad.
