AMS testing site

The AMS testing site is a location in the Ash Heap region of Appalachia. Its main purpose was to search for new veins of ultracite.
==Background==
An abandoned testing site where Atomic Mining Services perfected their excavation technology and non-human workforce,Fallout 76 Vault Dweller's Survival Guide p.389: "40. AMS TESTING SITEThe Automated Mining Systems company constructed a site to test its non-human workforce, and this collection of outbuildings and caravans near a (sealed) mine entrance is the result."(Fallout 76 Vault Dweller's Survival Guide Atlas of Appalachia) the site was shut down after a test launch went awry and produced no usable ultracite.Transcript: Test launch 11
==Layout==
Entering from the main entrance from the west, there is a small metal building to the north, the interior contains minor loot. A rail track runs south to north through the middle of the site, from a large metal building to a sealed mine entrance used to search for ultracite. Rail cars along the track are loaded with barrels of nuclear waste. Some are apparently leaking as heavy doses of radiation are found close to them. The area is usually also crawling with feral ghouls and possibly a wendigo.
The large metal prep building's interior has a weapons workbench on the eastern wall, a tinker's workbench, chemistry station, and two power armor stations. The furthest power armor station may have a chassis with T-series power armor. Information on the site can be found on a note across the room from the power armor stations. The exterior southern wall of this building has a fusion generator with a possible fusion core to loot.
Two beige and orange pods can be found east of the rail track. The first contains a searchable chem box and a safe (Picklock 2). The second contains a searchable chem container.
