Vernon East Takoma Park

Vernon East/Takoma Park is a tunnel in the partly caved in Metro. It gives a route from Vernon Square to Takoma Park.

Layout
Its Vernon Square East entrance can be reached from the Vernon Square side by traversing the radioactive ground above the sewer, it is located behind the rocket crash site and the ruins of the structure the rocket crash is located.

The tunnel is mostly collapsed and has a small amount of irradiated water along the train tracks. The tunnel itself is linear and goes directly from Vernon Square to Takoma Park. It has numerous twists and winds past a large amount of collapsed rubble. Near the Abernathy section, a status board still reads that the metro is operational in 2277, despite its destroyed state.

A few super mutants are found here as well as several mirelurk hunters. At higher levels, the hunters are replaced with mirelurk kings, in clusters of up to three. It is also possible at higher levels, some of the super mutants may be replaced with super mutant overlords with the Broken Steel add-on.

Notable loot

 * Lying, Congressional Style very close to the Vernon Square East exit, in the ticket booth.
 * Nuka-Cola Quantum in a trapped super mutant hideout in the west area of Abernathy station, on a shelf.
