Fallout 3 Game Add-Ons (DLC) Hints

How can I get this metro car going?

  • 1 of 8: Check it to see if its doors are open.
  • 2 of 8: If not, then either you didn't get and finish the "(Optional) Clear the security breach in the Presidential Metro" objective from M.A.R.Go.T., or the special Presidential Metro Sentinal Unit hasn't gotten around to doing the repairs yet.
  • 3 of 8: If the latter is the case, wait for the sentinal unit to do the repairs, at which time the metro car doors will open.
  • 4 of 8: Otherwise, you'll have to destroy the sentinal unit, get the main fuse from it, and activate the power box in the side room. (Or you can help kill off all the ghouls -- the sentinal unit will do the repairs then, even if you never talked to M.A.R.Go.T. at all.)
  • 5 of 8: Once the metro car's doors are open, check its three sections for control consoles.
  • 6 of 8: There's one at each end of the car.
  • 7 of 8: Go use the one that's at the south end to get taken to the Adams AFB Metro Exit area.
  • 8 of 8: TIP: Before you go, you might want to destroy the remaining sentry bots to get more XP and ammo.
