The Eastern tunnel is a location in the area around Jupiter in S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat.
Overview[]
A large railroad tunnel running underneath the Jupiter plant, on the northern side of the factory. Given the tunnel's location, it was likely an entrance for trains bound for the Pripyat 1 underpass. The railway there goes around the Quarry towards the Substation and the Northwestern tunnel. The railway splits into two at the entrance of the tunnel.
The tunnel itself is comprised of two large doorways for trains, but both are closed. Access to the tunnel is done through a series of rooms which can be accessed from a doorway on the eastern side of the tunnel entrance. The path leads to the tunnel's inside, which is a large depot area with a crane and a platform, most likely intended to load and unload some of the trains' cargo. Several locomotives and carriages can be found on the railways inside. There are also two more doorways for trains inside the depot leading to the underpass, but both are closed.
Appearances[]
Call of Pripyat[]
Two Burers reside in the depot and must be eliminated as part of a side quest given by Trapper in Yanov station. After the mutants are eliminated, the tunnel becomes a spawn point for rodents. Chimeras will also spawn in the vicinity after the mission Night Hunt is completed.
Stalkers may be encountered at the tunnel, sitting in the stairway and the entrance room outside. The indoors parts of the tunnel can serve as shelter during emissions.
Stashes[]
- Stash containing four first-aid kits, two bandages, one radioprotectant and three cans of Tourist's Breakfast; at the southern end of the water canal northeast of the tunnel.
