A video I made on what The Hunt is, how to unlock, what a Hunt Train is and how you can join.
Also why The Hunt is worth your time.

Gonna need to upgrade my computer if these hunt trains get any larger.
I do hope the HW A ranks stay easily soloable after statsquish. I am bit of a contrarian when it comes to these hunt trains.
This is why I'm kind of dreading cross DC activity.
Getting to S ranks before they die probably isn't a realistic proposition when doing cross DC, but trains tend to be announced long enough in advance that people could feasibly amass from across the entire game if they want the hunt currency badly enough.
They could try but it won't work out in practice if a large enough number of players is trying to do it.
Queues.
Queue to get your character data transferred to another data center. Queue to log onto whatever world the game picks for you in that data center (we don't get to pick when trying to log on another world from character selection now, I doubt that will be different for data center travel). Queue to world visit where the train is running (temporary train congestion makes it unlikely the game will select the train world).
Then you need to repeat the process to try to get back to your data center for whatever train was just announced there. There's a risk you're going to lose out on more than you gain. It would probably work for the very late night/very early morning trains but I don't see it working on reset days or during prime time.
It will also be a non-issue once Endwalker is released and we've got new hunts. I think people have forgotten how massive a difference there is between trains at the start of an expansion and end of expansion due to gear scaling and lack of familiarity with mechanics (so a lot more dying). Our current 20 seconds kills in the big trains will be getting replaced by 120-150 second kills. There's also going to be at least 3 instances for each Endwalker zone, possibly more considering the increasing size of the player base. There won't be a need to go cross data center to get more hunts because your home data center will have trains running almost constantly even with worlds overlapping them.
