Marigold Station

Marigold Station is one of the many Metro tunnel stations in Fallout 3. The metro station is located in Grayditch. It is the easiest route to take to Falls Church. Unfortunately, it is also filled with giant ants.

Traveling further south, there is a hole in the tracks that leads to the fire ant hatcheries, related to the quest "Those!".

Doctor Lesko has set up his lab close to the entrance to the Queen Ant's Hatchery. (E)

You will also find William Brandice down here. (D)

Behind the scenes
This metro station is a reference to the "Dunn Loring/Merrifield" station on the Orange Line near Falls Church, VA. The substituted name "Marigold" is likely a reference to the 1964 play "The Effect of Gamma Rays on Man-in-the-Moon Marigolds" in which a main character wins a science fair by growing marigold flowers from radioactive seeds.
