Bailey's Crossroads

 is a district of Washington, DC, added in the Operation: Anchorage add-on. It can be reached through Bailey's Crossroads Metro and consists of the metro exit, a small plaza, a large ruined building as well as an elevator to the Outcast Outpost.

Aiding the Outcasts
The player will emerge from the metro exit to find Defender Morrill and two other Brotherhood of Steel Outcasts engaged in a firefight against a detachment of several Super Mutants. Upon defeat of the latter, Morrill and his Outcasts will escort you through the Super Mutant-infested Crossroads area to the Outcast Outpost and a meeting with their leader, Protector McGraw.

Behind the Scenes

 * is an actual suburb of Washington, DC, located not far from its in-game location. It is known for large groups of apartment buildings, which may be the basis of the Outcast Outpost and its surrounding areas.


 * is named after Hachaliah Bailey, ancestor of James Anthony Bailey, of Barnum & Bailey's Circus.

Glitches

 * It is possible to escape the map of . Heading from the Outcast Outpost back through the destroyed building the player will find a ride-on vacuum cleaner at the top of the first set of step. By jumping onto this the player can reach the bookshelf next to it, and use an item to gain a small bit of height (one box of 5mm ammo works) and reach the destroyed 3rd floor. From here the player can carefully make their way around the perimeter of the ruined room and jump out of the map.


 * Entering Bailey's Crossrads can actually FIX a glitch! If the player has lost one or two companions, as in they are still alive but cannot be located, entering Bailey's Crossroads will send them back to their default locations. This happened with Dogmeat, who returned to Vault 101, and Star Paladin Cross, who returned to the citadel and acted as if she was fired.
