Atom Cats Garage

The Atom Cats garage is a location appearing in the Commonwealth in 2287.

Layout
Formerly a Red Rocket gas station, the building has been occupied by the Atom Cats, a gang with expertise in armor modifications, particularly power armor mods. A power armor station is located here for repairs, modifications and swapping parts.

The signature Atom Cats custom paint job can be purchased by speaking to Rowdy, the power armor dealer.

The area is a goldmine for power armor and accessories, including T-60 power armor, with two suits (minus the helmet, both located on the same chassis) being available to the Sole Survivor without engaging in combat, plus X-01 power armor parts sometimes available for purchase from Rowdy. Another three suits and an empty power armor frame can be obtained from killing the Atom Cats.

A named eyebot, Peepers, flies circuits of the gas station, acting as a mobile radio station.

Notable loot

 * Fusion core - In a generator outside the main building.
 * Unarmed bobblehead - On the hood of a car in the main building.
 * Hot Rodder issue #2 - In the trailer towards the northeast with two pink flamingos.
 * Atom Cats T-60 power armor (owned, without the helmet) - In the far back behind two laser tripwires. Two sets of power armor are on the same frame. The second set of parts will disappear when one enters the frame.
 * Cats poetry night tape 1, tape 2 and tape 3 are found in the compound. The first one is in the trailer home to the east, the second one is on the counter at the bar and the third one is on the nightstand next to the bed in the back room of the garage with two power armor stations.
 * Power armor frame (owned) - Inside the garage. However, if the garage is attacked by Gunners it is not uncommon for a member of the Atom Cats to use it for combat. Once they enter the frame, there's a chance that they won't exit it afterward.
 * Atom Cats custom paint job - Sold by Rowdy.
 * Vault-Tec lunchbox - At the end of the catwalk leading from the roof of the hardware warehouse where the bobblehead was found. In front of a radio, and a toy alien can be found next to it.
 * Quincy survivor's note - Just south of the garage, on a rowboat with two suitcases, a lunch pail, and a skeleton. The note is inside one of the suitcases.
 * Zeke's jacket and jeans - Given by Zeke after completing the Atom Cats quest.

Related quest

 * Atom Cats: The Sole Survivor can help the nearby Warwick homestead by repairing a pump for them.
 * Appropriation: When speaking with Evan Watson of the Institute Advanced Systems section, he'll tell the Sole Survivor he is impressed with the Brotherhood of Steel's technology and that the Institute could learn a lot from it and asks for help in finding some blueprints.

Appearances
The Atom Cats garage appears only in Fallout 4.

Bugs

 * A Brotherhood lancer may appear and cannot be killed but doesn't attack, preventing one from interacting with any Atom Cats, as they will continue to attack the Lancer. This will not allow you to complete or start any Atom Cats quest since one will not be able to interact at all with any of the Atom Cats.
 * When trying to repair broken or damaged pieces of power armor using the repair station, the pieces may transfer to the owned power armor frame next to the empty repair station, and they will be marked as "owned" by the Atom Cats, and trying to reclaim your property will turn them hostile.
