'''Broken Railroad''' is the 7th [[region]] to be added to ''The Long Dark''. It is one of 3 regions visited during the course of [[Episode 2: Luminance Fugue]].<br />
<br />
==Overview==<br />
Broken Railroad is described as a section of the Trans-Island Railway Line that was ravaged by earthquakes prior to the [[First Flare]], making navigation rather difficult. The region is connected to [[Forlorn Muskeg]]. It is a relatively small region with mild weather, but is home to many [[Wildlife|predators]]: 6-8 [[wolf|wolves]] and a [[Bear]], which can be difficult to avoid in the narrow, hilly, and heavily forested region. Beware that the (only) bear cave in this region is NOT marked with bones, unlike other bear caves. <br />
<br />
A [[Forge]] is located inside the [[Maintenance Shed|Maintenance Yard,]] which allows the forging of improvised tools and arrowheads. Abundant loot can be found inside the Maintenance Shed and the [[Hunting Lodge]] nearby. The outside office in the [[Maintenance Yard]] has a bed and behaves like a [[Warm cave|Warm Cave]], making it one of the few outdoor locations with indoor warmth insulation for preventing [[Cabin Fever]].<br />
<br />
This region will connect to the [[Far Range Branch Line]] and [[Transfer Pass]] regions, if players have purchased the [[Tales from the Far Territory]] DLC.<br />
<br />
==Food sources==<br />
Broken Railroad, similar to [[Desolation Point]] is a very small region that is quite isolated from the rest of Great Bear Island. It has several rabbit groves scattered throughout, but is very limited in game, with only 2-4 [[Deer]] spawning west of the [[Maintenance Yard]]. [[Ice Fishing]] is possible in the pond behind the Yard by using Free Form Ice Holes, though care must be taken not to attack the nearby Bear or Wolves. If planning to stay here for an extended time on Stalker or Interloper, it is wise to get cooking to Level 5 as soon as possible, which will enable the player to hunt wolves and the bear and provide ample food. 4-5 [[Deer Carcass]] can spawn throughout the region. <br />
<br />
==Locations==<br />
Broken Railroad is a relatively small map, but does feature a number of key locations:<br />
*[[Broken Bridge (Broken Railroad location)|Broken Bridge]]<br />
*[[Hunter's Blind]]<br />
*[[Hunting Lodge]]<br />
*[[Landslide]]<br />
*[[Maintenance Shed]]<br />
*[[Maintenance Yard]]<br />
*[[Locomotive Engine]]<br />
*[[Rickety Foot Bridge]]<br />
*To Forlorn Muskeg (Transition to [[Forlorn Muskeg]])<br />
*To Far Range Branch Line (Transition to [[Far Range Branch Line]]) (Only available with [[Tales from the Far Territory]])<br />
<br />
== Trivia ==<br />
*Prior to Rugged Sentinel, the winding path and footbridge was inaccessible except by scaling the rocks.<br />
*A Rope Climbing anchor point (initially with no deployed [[mountaineering rope]]) leads into a ravine along the western side of the region where the stream terminates. An abundance of items may be found below, including: hunting rifle, rifle ammunition, [[Frozen Corpse]], [[Wolf Carcass]], 2 Deer Carcasses and cattails. Beneath the Broken Bridge is a bin likely containing wood, food or fire starting tools. The climb back out is long, requiring high fatigue, resting at the ledge mid-climb, sleeping in a [[Bedroll]], or using an [[Emergency Stim]] to complete the climb.<br />
*This region shares some characteristics with [[Desolation Point]], including its small size, intermediate difficulty level, high predator density, and presence of a forge.<br />
