📋 About This Mod

You ever find it funny that even though the NCR canonically have working railroads, and New Vegas is a high-profile area, there's no working trains, freight or otherwise? I did. And because I'm the best, I've decided to add some actual trains to New Vegas. But then I decided to go the extra mile. Welcome to New Vegas Railroads. A worldspace/immersion mod that aims to get the Mojave moving a little bit, by expanding upon the NCR's often mentioned but little seen railroading endeavors. With this, the player may travel to the town of Bullhead, the major NCR railroad hub in the Mojave, and help them get New Vegas' railroads back up and running. But even if they choose to ignore that, Bullhead Railyard is full of things to do, with tons of unique weapons, equipment, and secrets scattered about.

FEATURES

__________________________________________________________________ -A new worldspace, Bullhead Depot, the major rail hub for all westbound freight in the NCR, connected to the Mojave via tunnel. With a massive amount of little features, secret areas, and more! -Bullhead features working signal lights, trains configurations changing as the day goes on (but only if you get the trains running), working lifts, and much, much more. -New equipment, all train themed of course! From railway rifles, crossing-gate melee weapons, and a locomotive-themed powerfist, plus much, MUCH more. -After the player saves Sloan from the deathclaws, and deals with the Powder Gangers, they can head to Colonel Hammer, the overseer at Bullhead, and inform him the tracks are clear. -Once they do this, trains will start traveling along the Bullhead-Sloan-Boulder City rail line, with set schedules!  -The ability to catch a train out of Bullhead, and ride it across the wasteland to Sloan, Boulder, or the Follower's trainyard! -A multitude of trains, most of them are standard Barstow diesels, but we have a special massive steam locomotive, the Twohead Flyer, ready for action. -Ability to watch the Twohead Flyer depart Bullhead and arrive in Boulder. It even crushes NPCs on the way! -Four fully voiced, unique NPCs.

INSTALLATION AND PLAYING

__________________________________________________________________ The mod installs like any other Fallout or TES mod. Take the files inside, place them in your data folder. Or just use an autoinstaller, that works too. After the mod is activated, travel south of Nipton, along the railroad tracks, until you reach the southern train tunnel. This now has a fast travel marker as well, labelled Mojave-Bullhead Tunnel. It is here you can travel through to reach Bullhead Railyard. To get the trains running, you must have killed Eddie in the NCRCF, and the Alpha and Mother Deathclaws in Sloan's quarry. Onc
