Trading
Canterbury Commons is one of the places where the Caravan Merchants stop, just outside of town.

When talking with Uncle Roe, (the character who gave you "The Superhuman Gambit" quest), you can talk him into organizing the Caravan Merchants, which gives you the opportunity to invest in the four different trade caravans found across the wasteland. He will also provide you with a map showing each stop the caravans make, and the paths they take to get there.

When asking about the traders locations, if any traders are dead, he will inform you. He will say Lucky Harith fell off the map, or morelikely burnt a hole in it.

If you invest twice into a caravan (200 caps, then 500 caps) you will be rewarded a specific item depending on the type of the caravan. Also, the merchant will gain an increased repair skill (meaning they will be able to repair things to a higher condition than Moira Brown in Megaton), will sell better loot (the armor merchant had power armor) and will also have more caps to spend when selling him items. You can invest in each caravan twice, so it will cost 2800 caps to upgrade all the traders (note that with the Master Trader perk, the cost is halved for each upgrade.)

The reward items are:

Doc Hoff - 7 Stimpaks

Crow - Crow's Eyebot Helmet

Crazy Wolfgang - 6 Stealth Boys

Lucky Harith - A Mini Nuke
