Bedford Station Subway Stations

Description

Bedford Station, once a pre-War train switching station servicing Thicket Excavations, is now infested with feral ghouls. This location served as a site for a synth rescue mission orchestrated by the Railroad, which ultimately went awry.

Background / History

Pre-War:
Bedford Station operated as a train switching station for transporting goods from the nearby quarry at Thicket Excavations. It was a vital part of the transportation infrastructure in the area.

Post-War:
Now overrun by feral ghouls, the station is a dangerous place to navigate. It was also the site of a failed synth rescue mission, where the Railroad’s agent, Dutchman, attempted to aid a synth, A9-51, in escaping from unknown assailants.

Layout

The station features a ruined southbound train on north to south running tracks. Ghouls roam the platform, with the highest level ones often near an explosive container. Dutchman’s body lies near the tracks, while Helena’s body leans against the water tower.
