Mount Blair Trainyard

The Mount Blair trainyard is a location in the Ash Heap region of Appalachia.

Background
Sitting at the southern edge of Mount Blair, this trainyard is situated on the Red Line once served as a major loading point for coal removed from the mountaintop. It only grew in importance as operations in the region scaled upward, especially after the introduction of the Rockhound. This also made it one of the focal points for the 2077 automation riots, calling attention to the deleterious effect Hornwright Industrial Mining Company's automation had on their situation and the region overall.

Layout
A large location with a central train building and several auxiliary buildings, including a scrap yard, warehouses, signal tower, and the nearby abandoned mine shaft Elaine. The central building contains a power armor station and power armor spawn point in the western half, near a tinker's workbench and a bobblehead spawn point. The eastern part contains a steamer trunk, a cooking station on the roof, and a chemistry station in the main hall. Upon the roof is another bobblehead spawn location.

Up the stairs in the interior huts, are the payroll and supervisor terminals. Just past the warehouse to the west, a magazine spawn point can be found in the scrapyard in the northwestern corner. On the eastern side, past the minor warehouse, another cooking station can be found on a derelict train. There are three fusion core processors in the immediate area of the trainyard that spawn fusion cores. Two are located on the ground floor of the main complex and one across a walkway on a nearby cliff.

Behind the scenes
In an office at the trainyard, there is a series of wooden blocks that spell out "WE KNO" next to a framed picture with a bloody handprint on it. This is a reference to the Dark Brotherhood's mysterious note in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.
