- Remove loose side panel
- Inspect the switches → [Traps] Flip the second switch
- Inspect the battery → [Traps] Attempt to remove the battery
- Inspect the wires → [Traps] Cut the black one
- If the bomb detonates, the train will be destroyed and the entire train depot will be buried under stone. You can report the train's destruction and Free Drones involvement to Clifton.

- Killing the bandits and defusing the bomb or revealing the train's location to authorities in SRO will allow an opportunity to join the Protectorate.
- Finding the bandits, not attacking them and lying to Harve that you cannot find the train will result in an opportunity to join Free Drones.
- Getting the train blown up to smithereens will provide no follow-up quests from any faction.
