The Gypsum Train Yard is a location in the Mojave Wasteland in Fallout: New Vegas. It is located northwest of the cap counterfeiting shack and west of Bitter Springs.
Background

Layout
The outside is patrolled by many blind deathclaws and young deathclaws. The office building is occupied by three giant ants, whose bodies may or may not contain ant nectar and/or an ant egg or two. In addition, there are ten ant egg clutches, most of them containing ant meat.
Loot
- Sunset Sarsaparilla Star Bottle Cap - On the desk in the rear of the Gypsum quarry office.
Notes
- There is a large possibility for the star bottle cap to find itself thrown around the room and with the possibility of becoming lost during the inevitable battle with residing ants in the confined space within. It may also clip through the desk, at which point it is impossible to retrieve without console commands or lucky explosives usage.
- There is an unmarked train tunnel (with a Very Hard lock on both ends) north of the train yard that leads to Nellis Air Force Base and may be used to avoid the Anti-Aircraft Gun bombardment when approaching the Boomers' base.
Appearances
Gypsum train yard appears only in Fallout: New Vegas.
Behind the scenes
The Gypsum train yard is located in the same geographical area as the real world Nevada Industrial Switch Railway Station serving PABCO Gypsum Mine in northeast Las Vegas, Nevada.
Bugs
The Sunset Sarsaparilla Star Bottle Cap does not always appear. Reloading from a previous save may fix this. Alternatively tossing a frag grenade into the area of the desk (with the dead terminal) seems to shake it loose and make the bottle cap re-appear on the desk.[verified]
