Pylon V-13

Pylon V-13 is a location in the Cranberry Bog region of Appalachia in 2103.

Background
This section of the Appalachian monorail system was going to be used by Professor Greebly as part of an experiment attempting to conduct time travel by moving through dimensions at a high speed.

Layout
The lower part of this location is made up of numerous wooden structures, one of which holds a weapons workbench, alongside multiple skeletons inside the train. There is a flight of stairs that leads up the monorail pylon before reaching a platform just outside the entrance to a train car. Three long cars on this particular train were being used by scientists. Various junk items and beds are strewn about the monorail, as well as a medium generator sticking out of an open door.

Heading south leads to one end of the train that faces the pylon that Greebly was going to use to travel through time. One can step out of a broken window onto another wooden platform that leads to the heavily irradiated pylon. The circle has about fifty boards attached to it, as well as Tesla coils that will shoot out electricity if a button inside the train is pressed.

There is a skeleton on the ground on the other side of the pylon and to the north at the base of another pylon, is the mound for Cranberry treasure map #4.
