Farragut West Station

Farragut West Station is a Metro station and part of the old underground Metro tunnel system in the Capital Wasteland $$ It exits into Friendship Station and the Farragut West Metro Station. The main entry is due east of Super-Duper Mart.

Layout
At the first section of the metro, there are no enemies, until you pass the gate, giving you access to the rest of the metro. This will allow you to go directly to the terminal for the Protectron. While the door for the Protectron is opening or before accessing the terminal you should take the metro ticket. Next after the robot takes your ticket, he will go and kill the three mole-rats that are just past the gates.

After you pass a desk and a locker in a room on your map that is next to a corridor you will reach a set of stairs in an area that looks much more run down that the previous area. At the end of the first set of stairs on a landing, there will be a lawnmower, which will hold one of the components of the Shishkebab.

After going through the gate, you will see some filing cabinets, a door, and a set of stairs. The door is the way to advance through the metro. If you lack the ability to pick locks, there is a key in the First Aid Box in the room with the loot. This unlocks both the gate and the door. After the door, you will see a couple more flights of stairs, then a door leading to the Friendship Station.

Loot

 * U.S. Army: 30 Handy Flamethrower Recipes at the bottom of the room with the ghouls, behind a locked door (average) and 3 Pre-War Books (A).
 * Nikola Tesla and You through the door opposite the locked gate, in a locked safe (B). If you lack the ability to pick locks, the terminal on the desk will open it for you. There is also the Metro Utility gate key in the First Aid Box on the desk that opens both the gate and the door beyond.
 * DCTA laser firearms protocol in the same safe.
