Flooded Metro (exterior)

The Flooded Metro exterior is a location in the Capital Wasteland $$ It marks access to a Flooded Metro in the southwest of the urban DC area, between the Arlington Library and Red Racer Factory. A large raider encampment is just to the southeast of this location.

Layout
The flooded metro is located on the side of an old expressway which is littered with pre-War cars and runs under the rubble of a highway overpass. The entrance to the old metro station is located in the middle of a square at the bottom of a set of nonfunctional escalators. On the other side of the expressway lies a large raider camp.

The interior of the flooded metro tunnels connect to Mason District South. It is infested with several mirelurks up to and including kings, as well as irradiated water.

Loot

 * Chinese Army: Special Ops Training Manual, in the Pulowski Preservation shelter close to the escalators.
 * Guns and Bullets in the first room from the tunnel, west side of the room behind the generator.
 * The Shocker, a unique Power Fist with a manual explaining its use. See the weapon's article for directions.
 * A Nuka-Cola Quantum is in the same room as the Shocker, on top of a gun cabinet.
 * Pugilism Illustrated and Nuka-Cola Quantum on the makeshift kitchen table in the raider camp. The Quantum is in a wooden crate on top of a shelf near the fridge in the Flooded metro raider camp.
 * Tumblers Today in the lofted area of the raider camp near one of the mattresses.

Appearances

Behind the scenes
The files for the flooded sewer location refer to this specific flooded metro, with entries for the Shocker glove and an unused metro sign. There is another location on the game map of the same name.

Bugs
There is a mirelurk hunter here that can sometimes teleport around to areas nearby the player, giving it the ability to sometimes surprise the player from behind.
