PONY EXPRESS BOXES
(you can ship your loot back to various settlements without having to carry it!)
As a newcomer to TTW (finished FO3 and NV years ago) I was surprised to find one of these boxes outside of Rivet City and upon reading the instructions, it sounds like a great idea...HOWEVER
There is no mention of where the other boxes are or how they work anywhere on the TTW website or reddit or anywhere on the internet. After digging around for a while I found an old TTW forums comment by chucksteel from 2013 talking about potentially adding these boxes as a feature to a mod named TTWInteriors. In this comment they envisioned adding 8 boxes in total to the CW. I then read through TTW changelogs and found this entry in the log for 3.2 (3-2): "Added five Pony Express boxes to the Capital Wasteland (thanks pintocat!)"
>inb4 "why mention it, it works like the Mojave express"
Yes but this is clearly the Capital Wasteland and these boxes have never been in Fallout 3 so obviously people will have no idea these are in the game to begin with let alone where to find them.
I think it would be great to tell new (and old) TTW fans about this feature on somewhere like the FAQ or on the bestoftimes site. Now, I haven't found the other boxes yet but based on the same thread from 2013, the locations might be these: "Tenpenny, Canterbury, Rivet City, Megaton (+ one more)"
Once I've found them myself I will confirm in a reply to this comment.
