Rolling Thunder is the fifth of six missions in Medal of Honor: Frontline.
Briefing[]
Exceptional work, Jimmy. It's good to know you made it to the hotel in Emmerich. Just beyond your window is the city's train station, which the German army has commandeered for military purposes. Sturmgeist will be arriving shortly to board his private armored train. Once on board, we're fairly certain he will be heading straight for the secret airbase. He's been on an inspection tour of various facilities, and all indications are that he's heading there.
You must get on that train, Patterson! This may be our last chance to discover where that prototype fighter is being developed. You'll need to find a disguise and bluff your way past the guards. Intelligence tells us that security at the station is relaxed. You should have no problem getting onto the train, but stay alert and don't let down your guard. We're depending on you. Get on that train and follow Sturmgeist to the secret base. You'll continue your mission from there.
I should warn you Jimmy: the British are sending a squadron of Lancasters to bomb the city tonight, and that station is among the list of targets. If you don't make your way out now, you may not make it out at all. Good luck to you.

On a Rail to Nowhere
Supplies and production were vital areas of the war in which the Allies dominated. Relentless Allied bombing runs over the Ruhr Valley factories resulted in an increasingly crippled German war machine. The [...] strafing of railroads and railyards left behind broken trains stalled on destroyed tracks. Without fuel, Germany's heavy weapons were useless. Its vaunted Panzers immobilized and its planes grounded, the German infantry was left to carry on the fight alone.
