T-Bone Junction

T-Bone Junction is the starting area of The Secret Armory of General Knoxx. It serves as the main hub for missions, trading, and travelling in DLC3.

Overview
T-Bone Junction is made up of two cul-de-sacs, connected by a single road, connecting a group of apartments and stores. Vehicles can freely travel the short U-shaped roadway of the settlement and pedestrians also have access to a series of catwalks and an elevator that has stopping points in each of the three primary elevations. A fourth, run-down, sub-level can also be accessed beneath the main structure.

It has all the basic vending machines, as well as Catch-A-Rides and New-U Stations. The local Fast Travel terminal is inside a structure that appears to be heavily used as a transport terminal.

Notable Allies

 * Athena (after being rescued)
 * Claptrap
 * Dr. Zed
 * Marcus Kincaid
 * Scooter

Scooter, Marcus and Athena offer missions throughout the game. Dr. Zed is a silent participant, presumably maintaining the nearby Med Vendor, and the local Claptrap's only function is to announce new missions available on the T-Bone Junction Bounty Board.

Notable Enemies

 * Meat Popsicle

Hidden Room
In the lowest section of T-Bone Junction, are a number of suspended buildings with walkways around them. One of these structures houses a hidden room that is locked initially, but can be unlocked with a nearby switch. The switch is located on the far side from the door of the unit, next to a red weapons chest. Inside the room is a refrigerator and a shrine to Lilith. The fridge conceals a Level 61 Meat Popsicle in side of it, although aside from the light show surrounding the "Wanted" poster of Lilith there is nothing else of value.

Connections

 * Crimson Tollway
 * The Ridgeway

Trivia

 * A "T-Bone" or broadside collision is a type of auto accident where the side of one vehicle is struck by the front or rear of another vehicle or a fixed object, forming a "T". Given the vehicle-centric nature of the expansion, the reference in the zone name seems obvious.
 * T-Bone Junction has a pronounced surplus in advertisement signs. Some of these signs advertise areas in the Zombie Island of Dr. Ned and The Underdome.
 * On Marcus Kincaid's store counter, there is one of many racecar toy models, except this one has an active NPC; all he says is "Have you seen my gun?"
