The group, (Assuming Frag, Takoko, and Liz don't want to stand around on the road outside) makes their way down the dark road after Harvey. The only part of town that currently seems to be lit is the warehouse (And the large parking lot around it) the Trooper mentioned. It's completely surrounded by a long wall of old shipping containers, dotted with sandbags and the occasional guard.
You follow the road along the wall until it opens to make an entrance on the North side, stopping to let a battered old pick-up truck and its blinding headlights drive down the road from the quarry and turn through the gate.
The town consists of the Warehouse, a small building next to it, which according to the sign glowing brightly over it, facing the entrance, claims to be the Mother Lode Casino the welcome sign mentioned, (though it doesn't look nearly as fancy as the casinos you passed by in Primm) and lastly the entirety of the Parking Lot. Scattered throughout the parking lot are dozens and dozens more of the shipping containers, all built into makeshift homes and businesses. Some stand up to three containers high, with wooden and metal stairways built spiraling up and around them. Other buildings are simply single containers lined up sideways along the walls or other, larger buildings, with sections of their sides cut out to form large booth-like shops, all filled with goods and merchants, shouting out to the townsfolk and travelers now presumably 'trapped' here. The shipping-container buildings make a rather neat grid, and the crowds are surprisingly thick, giving it a big-city feel despite its small size. You'd imagine there's probably more to this town, that may have been evacuated earlier - greatly augmenting the crowd's numbers. It's quite a stark contrast from the wasteland you'd been walking through just earlier today. Jean had mostly been evacuated due to the 'problems' with the Correctional Facility, so you haven't seen too many people since you left Primm.
Kathryn isn't really sure where to start, if she wanted to look for a place to make some money off of her skills as a Doctor, but she does spot a nearby bar built out of one of the shipping containers. A line of stools stands across the front side of it, and though most of them are taken, there are some tables set up nearby.
From atop a walkway between two of the taller buildings stands a relatively well dressed man with an old miner's hat on, the light shining down into the crowd. He seems to claim that maybe this roadblock was the work of destiny, and that this may be your lucky night down at the Mother Lode Casino. You aren't sure how much truth there may be to that.
