Part of Camp Searchlight
When the bombs fell, Searchlight police parked a convoy of nuclear waste trucks from San Onofre inside this station, and the sealed casks sat here for over two centuries. Vulpes Inculta later sent legionaries to open them, flooding Camp Searchlight with radiation, killing or ghoulifying most of the NCR garrison. Two dead recruit legionaries in the garage carry Legion orders.
The doors are locked; get the key from Logan in the west church basement during Wheel of Fortune, or take it from his body. A radscorpion queen and smaller radscorpions wait in the garage. Upstairs are a bunk room, a kitchen with a star cap, the chief's office with a terminal explaining the waste trucks, and a bathroom where the unique fire axe Knock-Knock leans beside a skeleton in a stall.
How to get there
Get the key from Logan in the west church basement, then cross town to the station beside the elementary school.
