Meresti Metro Station

Meresti Station is the home of The Family in Fallout 3. It is an underground train station in the Capital Wasteland's Washington D.C. Metro, but has been cut off from the rest of the tunnels. It is accessible only through the Meresti Trainyard or an underground sewer manhole in Northwest Seneca Station.

Trivia
Meresti is derived from Mărăști, the name of a town (more specifically, a commune) in Romania, which is fitting considering the overall vampire theme of the events that occur in the vicinity. One of the Family, Justin, makes note of this.
