The Box in The Arrow station
The Arrow is a DHARMA Initiative station. The station was discovered by the Tailenders who used it temporarily as a shelter. Its name was revealed on the Blast Door Map. The Arrow station's purpose is unknown at the moment. It seems to have been abandoned by its personnel for unknown reasons and was empty except for a box containing a number of items. Just as in The Swan station "QUARANTINE" is written on the inside of the door. No Arrow-specific Orientation Film has been found.
The Box
When the Tailenders arrived in The Arrow station, they found a box which contained the following items wrapped in a cloth:
- A glass eye.
- A Bible, which Mr. Eko took. Later it is revealed that it had been used to hide a piece of film, which was spliced into the Swan Orientation Film.
- A (two-way) radio, with which Bernard makes contact with Boone, and which the Tailenders bring with them on their march to join the other survivors.

Theories
- There is speculation that Arrow is just a supply depot and that is why the tailies found it mostly empty. There could be more than one Arrow station because many supply stations are needed; they are only insignificant bunkers.
- The bunker that the tailies found may not be the whole Arrow station. On the Blast Door Map, there is a small part that connects to the main station off to the left of it. This may be a supply station that the tailies found. They also may have found one of the "CV's" on the map, seen clustered near The Swan and C4. This "CV V" (CV 5) may not be visible on the map, as the top is slightly cut off.
- The bunker the talies found, was a Arrow station - substation. May be the Abandoned #7????
- Using the computer for communication may be The Incident. Following this incident, part of the Swan Orientation Film may have been removed and hidden in The Arrow to prevent viewers from realizing communication via the computer was even possible. This could confirm that the Arrow is a storage facility.
- Was used by Radvinsky at one point as the parts of the orientation video that he edited out were found there.
