Your main concern is to stay in as many groups of people as possible at the train station. On platform A, there won't be that many police officers, all you really need to do is make it all the way down to the control building at the end of the station. There is a ledge off to the right side where you'll have to cross and enter a window. You can really ignore everyone in here and slip right past them.

Next you'll come to a ladder down the hall and off to the right. Climb up and there will be another person in here, you can ignore him for now as well and go to the terminal and set a train to arrive at platform B. If you wait a little while the man in the room will leave. Once he does slip out the door, but be mindful since when I left the room there was a police office right outside the door.

Make your way to the right side and go down the steps to join a large crowd of people waiting for the next train. This is where it gets kinda tricky. You have to wait about sixty seconds for the next train to arrive. That means KEEP MOVING and stop every so often in a big crowd of people to keep yourself well-hidden.

Good Luck!

While this is story related and indeed cannot be missed, I will try to provide a detailed account of how to unlock this trophy.

DISCLAIMER: I will only be posting the solution that worked for ME and my PLAY STYLE! There are other solutions. Feel free to add them.

I will describe Run For Your Life in 5 parts.
1. Burning Hotel.
2. The Library.
3. Pigeon Coop.
4. Shangri-La.
5. Train Station.

The goal of Burning Hotel is pretty simple and straightforward. Your only risky obstacle is the police on the rooftop.

1. The hotel is on fire. Follow the path until you see a shutter. Go through it and onto the ledge.
2. Ignore the helicopter and police as you move to the right. There should be a latter nearby. As you climb, things will fall but won't hit you. Eventually you'll reach the rooftop.
3. The area should be filled with smoke. Find the nearest cover.
4. There should be 4 or more policemen so be sure to use instinct as often as you can. I stuck to the right side and carefully advanced forward.
5. Keep moving slowly until you see some men ahead keeping watch at a stairwell. To move about undetected you must distract the guards by throwing a wrench.
6. Go to the exit when prompted by the game.

The goal of The Library is to get to the only exit at the other end of the building. Sounds easy but this area is extremely large and is SWARMING with cops.

1. Get to the balcony below. You can obtain Chicago policeman disguise. if you are on higher difficulty and stun the lone policeman here. Remember to hide the body.
2. From the balcony I went left and jumped down. Wait until the policemen move about and start talking. Once the conversation ends they will split up. Take the time to search the place. The Levers around the area control the chandeliers and can serve as either a distraction or an accident. Be sure to try and find some power cords because you can use them like a garrote.
3. Remember to be careful when sneaking past cops. If you subdue them this is a reminder to place body in crates or closets.
4. Press on forward. The power at this point should be going off and on. You can add more distraction and interact with a fuse box.
5. Look around and upward to see if you can spot a ledge to climb onto to get you to the upper balconies.
6. If you want the Evidence then be sure to get yourself a Chicago policeman disguise. and use instinct. It should be in an area where there are brown "tables."
7. As you get closer to the exit the area will swarm with policemen, so be very careful. Stick to the side of the building and bide your time until they move and you can trudge forward. You can use instinct or throw an object.
9. Walk around a ruined staircase and look around or upward to find a ledge to climb on. Walk over the metal beam to exit the library finally!

The Pigeon Coop is full of action and dodging obstacles.

1. Walk to the edge and drop down. Quickly head to the nearest building before the helicopter spots you.
2. Keep avoiding the helicopter, but allow it to clear a path for you. Slow and steady. The path is pretty straightforward until you get a very short cutscene where Agent 47 jumps to the next building.
3. There should be a policeman as you press forward. To avoid detection look for a ventilation shaft. I'm fairly certain you can subdue or kill him but will alert everyone around to your presence. The choice is yours.
4. When you get to the rooftop, take the time to find cover and avoid the helicopter lights. Should be a few policemen up here as well. Slow and steady stick to the left.
5. You should now be close to the exit door. Just simply wait for the policemen to talk and split up or if you still have the Chicago policeman disguise you can simply use instinct if you have any to spare and walk through the door.

Shangri-La main objective is to take time to explore and to find the elevator.

1. Follow the path until you see a bathroom. Enter it and retrieve some Medicine.
2. Follow the path again and when it splits turn left. Hide behind cover while policemen are talking.
3. Wait until the policemen are done talking and have their backs turned before moving to the next room.
4. Be on the lookout for Evidence It's on a windowsill. (I missed this on my first runthrough of this mission.)
5. Keep moving until you approach the large residential area.
6. This is guarded by a large group. So cover, sneaking, and distractions are key. Bear in mind that this elevator like previous ones in the game take time to come down to you. So please don't wait out in the open!
7. Avoid the central room. There is nothing of interest here except cops.
8. There is room close to the marijuana to the right that connects a few rooms. There is a safe with flowers all over it in one room. Inside there will be explosives. But first we need to open it.
9. Look for a Notebook that has the combination on it. Should be nearby, just wait for the policemen to go. Open the safe.
10. There should be a Radio nearby for you to turn on. Get to nearby cover, probably in the next room and wait for the police to notice the safe.
11. He will summon his friends. The distraction gives you time to move toward the elevator and detonate the explosives.
12. Enter the elevator.

The main goal of the Train Station is to evade police and restart the train signals to stop the train.

Let me say right now. I died here with the Chicago Police disguise because I played on higher difficulty and ran out of instinct when walking through the door in front of the elevator. I then ran into S.W.A.T. and I ran out of instinct again and got killed again.

I then tried another route.

1. Head to the left door from the elevator. Hide behind cover and wait to follow a policeman after he surveys the area.
2. Be sure to explore the lobby if you can. You can find Evidence there.
3. Head to the exit by passing policeman and going to the left building. The game will take you to the Train Platform Finally the trophy is within sight. Just a few more steps.
4. Name of the game is to avoid detection. Watch out for policemen as you move carefully through the crowds. I still had the Chicago Police disguise but I think the S.W.A.T. disguise could probably work too.
5. If you run out of instinct you can interact with the Game Machines scattered around to avoid police.
6. When you reach the other end of the platform, move to a ledge located near the right. and press and move to the right. You'll come to a shutter/window. Go through it.
7. Find a latter up ahead.
8. You'll need to be careful and sneak until you locate a Control Panel up here and interact with it.
9. Now that you signaled the train return to the platform. There might be a policeman on the way back, be careful.
10. The game will now keep track of a 60 second timer for you. This is for the train to arrive. Remember to hide with at the game machines and blending in with the crowds.
11. When the timer is up the train will stop at the MIDDLE platform so move up from where you're at. The police are littered everywhere around this train so use your instinct and enter any door.

Mission complete. Trophy should also pop!
