Ashland Station is a location/quest & settlement mod that takes the player beneath the lost city of Ashland, Massachusetts, exploring your way through caverns, ruined metro tunnels, sewers, and more. Aimed to fit seamlessly into the vanilla game with a nice balance of looting, combat & dialogue. Rewarding for players who take a little extra time to look around. Featuring mostly environmental storytelling and a backstory progressed through NPC dialogue, a handful of notes & audio holotapes. 



    • An expansive new location with custom textures and meshes (2 large interior cells total)
    • A Lore Friendly Quest with optional side objectives and custom quest icon animations 
    • A fully functional Settlement & a fully functional custom voiced settler. Fast travel is enabled within the settlement.
    • An optional radiant quest system after the settlement is unlocked
    • Immersive repairs and Skill Checks that allow the player to fix broken walls, generators, lights, a protectron steward, and more.
    • A custom settlement attack unique to this location.
    • Tune the subway PA system to any radio station available on your pipboy, using the station’s Utility Terminal.
    • Balanced loot (mostly handled by leveled lists)
    • Main Quest offers 1-2 Hours of gameplay
    • A unique legendary weapon and power armor piece. Both equipped with effects custom made for this mod.
    • FOMOD install options for various extras including brighter lighting & subway runner integration.
    • An eldritch horror hidden somewhere in the depths below...


The official start to the quest is by entering the cave west of Poseidon Reservoir (Check Screenshot). 

Once the quest is completed you will gain access to the settlement, And using the Station terminal you will have options to adjust the subway lighting, raise & lower the water and more.

All trash can be scrapped. And stains, puddles and skeletons can be removed using the Protectron Steward.




This location/quest is near the glowing sea and is therefore aimed at higher level players. Lower level players will find this dungeon challenging.

No perks are required at any point to progress the quests, locksmith and hacker may come in use but will not be required.




Install one of the main files with mod manager.

This mod has no requirements and is not load order sensitive.

The FOMOD installer will guide you through and help you choose any of the extra options including subway runner integration.

Optional Rusty Subway Texture replacer (2048x2048) with permission from Zlostnypopolnik.



Ashland Station does not make any changes to cells within the commonwealth worldspace, instead using "persistent" records for the above ground entrance. This means it will not conflict with any mods that affect precombines.

This mod also does not change any vanilla game records. This means compatibility is extremely high. The only chance of mod conflicts will be clipping objects if another mod adds objects into the same area we have placed the entrance to the location.
