Franklin Station

 is a part of the DC Metro system, and grants a passage between Mason District and Falls Church.

It is one of two metro lines accessed at the Falls Church Metro location on the World Map. The entrace to the Falls Church/Mason Dst Metro is on the eastern end of the Falls Church Metro marker. The entrance to the Marigold Station tunnels is at the west end.

It also grants access to Franklin Metro Utility, a Ghoul-infested dead end but with some worthwhile loot.

The platform near the Mason District exit to Hubris Comics is home to a Raider base that is usually under siege from a group of Feral Ghouls. Depending on the character's level, the Raider leader may be armed with a Flamer, and there may be a Glowing One (or more) accompanying the Ghouls. If the Broken Steel add-on is installed there may even be a Feral Ghoul Reaver or two among the pack, likely making short work of the Raiders.
