	Talk to [[Hammilton]] in the [[Boneyard#Followers of the Apocalypse's Library\|Boneyard Library]] and he will ask you to track down and kill one of his workers who has left. You ~~must go~~ to the nearby [[Train station]] and ask four people about the missing man. The fourth person will point you toward the next [[Train station]]. ~~Go there and ask four more people and you'll find that~~ the ~~missing person boarded~~ the train ~~to [[~~NCR]]. Follow your leads ~~asking four people at each of the four stations~~ and you'll eventually track him back to a ~~shady man~~ at the [[NCR]] train station who will tell you the location of the man, whose hideout is nearby to the west.		* Talk to [[Hammilton]] in the [[Boneyard#Followers of the Apocalypse's Library\|Boneyard Library]] and he will ask you to track down and kill one of his workers who has left. You should take note from his vulgar vocabulary that he is seeking someone ruthless to do this job.
			* Go to the nearby [[Train station]] and ask four people about the missing man. They are all called Train Station Peasant. The fourth person will point you toward the next [[Train station]].
			* Repeat the above step for the other 3 train stations, but for convenience make the NCR train station your last.
			* Follow your leads and you'll eventually track him back to a Shady Person at the [[NCR]] train station who will tell you the location of the man, whose hideout is nearby to the west. Shady Person can be found standing in front of a small shack in the south-eastern corner of the train station. During the interrogation you will learn you are in fact tracking down a group of people who want to get as far away from Hamilton as possible.

	When you confront your target, you learn his name, which is [[Wounded Greg\|Greg]]. You see he is wounded and is guarding his daughter. You have two options: ~~kill~~ him as planned~~, or spare~~ his life which leads to fighting a hit squad. If you spare ~~his~~ life, you can get a dialogue option with Hammilton to lie, with [[Charisma]] 5 or more, but [[Hammilton]] will still know you're lying and pressure you to fess up. When you do, he immediately sends a hit squad to kill you, so watch out; you'll get a forced encounter with a unique location, and be surrounded and immediately attacked by his hit squad, so it's best to wear good armor and [[Drugs\|drug up]] right after speaking with [[Hammilton]].

	'''NOTE:''' To complete this quest, you'll need to explore all four [[Train station]]s, and speak with 4 people in each one.		Greg's daughter does not have to die even if you choose to kill her father. Be careful if you do not want to become a [[Childkiller]].

			'''NOTE:''' To complete this quest, you'll need to explore all four [[Train station]]s, and speak with 4 people in each one, a total of 16.

			'''NOTE:''' While the encounter with Greg features a cave with unobscured entrance, it cannot be entered. Besides a fruit tree there is nothing useful in this map.
