Boulder Train Station

The  is the initial entry point into Boulder for the PC, and the only access point for all trains that enter and leave the city. Victor Presper has a personal train he used to get here.

Before the War
Trains were probably not used to a great extent for human tranportation before the war. With new technologies like Vertibirds, trains only really were used to bring goods in and out. During the construction of the Boulder Dome, it is likely that the raw materials and parts for the structure were brought in via trains.

After the War
For people from the West coast traveling east, trains were the only feasible method of transportation without cars. Knowing that NCR still has working access railroad lines from California to Colorado is amazing. So far, at least 3 different trains are known to have traveled here: the NCR train, the one being responsible for bringing all the scientists to and from the Dome; Presper's personal train (if found, it is rigged with exposives); and the PC's own personal train.

Layout
The train station is infested with Jackals who are apparently trying to figure out what the trains are, and how they got there. If the PC enters Boulder with his/her own personal train, they will become hostile and attack. Although, the staion itself is pretty big, most of the lines leading in and out of the station are unusable because of debris blockage. From here, the player can access the Jackal Camp, the Secret Tunnel Entrance, or the west quarantine center of the dome. The preferable way to go is the trail leading directly to the dome, as the Jackals will attack the player if he enters their camp, and the secret entrance is initially hard to find.

Appearances
did not appear nor was mentioned in any published games, but was going to appear in Van Buren, the canceled Fallout 3 by Black Isle Studios.
