Control Resonant Subway Maintenance Locations

Ten Subway Maintenance collectibles in Control Resonant tell one story below Central: nine Maintenance Recordings from FBC workers Sandra and Burt, and Clarke’s ID Badge. Every one is picked up in Central’s underground stations during Power Lines, the main mission that has Dylan reroute the subway’s power. Players who still search for Control 2 can open the Central map of the Perimeter, Factory, and East Park stations and see the whole route.

Each tape was logged in place by Map Master owner and editor Vlad Susanu on his own Power Lines run, and the Control Resonant underground and story maps connect this set to the rest of Manhattan. Two items cause most of the gaps: Clarke’s ID Badge, which comes from a body, and Recording #9, which waits behind a powered door.


How Subway Maintenance Collectibles Unlock: Six Before the Distortion, Four After


Perimeter, Factory, and East Park can be rerouted in any order, and each has two recordings, so your tapes won’t arrive in number order unless your route does. Every station uses Power Core puzzles, and the eight Power Core Stations in Power Lines explain how to move the charge.


Finishing the third station triggers the distortion that strands Dylan, and that splits the set cleanly: six recordings before it, and the badge plus the last three tapes after it. The notes beside each station’s central machine hint where the calibration devices go, so read them while you’re there for the recordings.


Subway Maintenance Recordings: Sandra and Burt’s Mission Logs


The nine recordings are numbered “mission logs” from two Bureau workers sent below the streets before things went wrong. They follow the crew in order, so playing them in number order after the mission tells the story better than hearing them as you find them.


Clarke’s ID Badge puts a face to one of the voices. It belongs to Burt Clarke, the Burt on every tape, and it’s the only item in the set that isn’t a recording. The Mold that overran their tunnels is the same growth the Mold Research files on Manhattan’s growth study.


Clarke’s ID Badge and Recording #9: The Two Subway Maintenance Items Players Miss


The badge isn’t a pickup on a platform. After the reroute, the blocked tunnel out of Factory Station opens and fills with Mold, and Clarke’s body is beyond that fight. The badge only drops when you interact with the body, so look for the prompt instead of running past in the dark.


Recording #9 is behind shutters that need power. Take a charge from the cube near the floodlight where Mold is growing and deliver it to the box outside the locked room, and the same room has the Power Lines Health crate, so one charge opens both.


Subway Maintenance Collectibles in the Vanished Station: Platform A, Then B


The Vanished Station has the last three tapes across two platforms, and Platform A has to be calibrated before Platform B. Recording #8 is the only one on Platform A, so you’ll hear #8 before #7, and a missing #7 means you haven’t reached Platform B yet.


Powering a box can switch on UV floodlights that grow Mold, and cutting the power destroys it. On Platform B, leave the Mold over the broken power wires in place, since it conducts electricity, and clear only the growth on the black platforms. Get that wrong and the calibration stalls, which also blocks the way to #7 and #9.


Where to Find Every Subway Maintenance Collectible in Power Lines


The first three stations give two recordings each, the Vanished Station gives three, and Clarke’s ID Badge comes from the tunnel out of Factory Station, ten Subway Maintenance items in all. Power Lines also pays a Living Shard for finishing the reroute, so the mission ends with the set, a shard, and a Health point.


You can return to the Vanished Station after Power Lines, so a tape or the badge you missed can wait for a cleanup trip. The Central Factory Investigation files continue Central’s Archive, and the West Incursion Records from the next zone take the Bureau’s story west.
