Junction 15 Railway Station

Junction 15 Railway Station is an abandoned stop beside the train tracks along Interstate 15, north of Neil's shack. The station building itself cannot be entered; the site is the platform and tracks beside it. Hunter's Farm lies to the north and the NCR Ranger Safehouse is to the east, so the station sits in the gap between the busy McCarran area and the dangerous southern highways.

This is one of the most dangerous spots south of Vegas. Numerous deathclaws, including young deathclaws, roam around the station, so do not come at low level. There is a spot under the catwalk that the deathclaws cannot reach, which lets you hide or shoot at them safely. Legionary assassins also spawn here often, and you can lure them into the deathclaws, which usually wipe them out. The only notable loot is a Sunset Sarsaparilla star cap on the left green bench on the platform.

The main reason to come is the map marker. Junction 15 gives you a fast travel point roughly halfway between Camp McCarran and Hidden Valley, which saves walking when you are running errands for the Brotherhood of Steel or heading down to Sloan and Quarry Junction. It also makes a handy jump off point for the NCR Ranger Safehouse once Colonel Hsu gives you the key, since the safehouse is only a short hike to the east.
