I guess I could go back to Alien: Isolation.

We may have recklessly laid train tracks but for anyone not on the east coast that means nothing because there's no trains here.

I did some double checking and the launch of Unit 731 is wrong (1933) and I would probably put the collapse of Japanese power in China by about the fifties with the mid-late forties kind of being the point where they stop being able to exert themselves.

The thing I'd like to call out is the wind-turbines. While it's feasible those not caught in the air blast of a nuclear explosion could still work the present condition in this world probably isn't one where you can produce replacement parts to keep them maintained. They might even end up in the same sort of condition as Shorticus' solar panels to run his radios; there probably won't be anything new any time soon and they're not going to be as effective as they once were.

The old electrical distribution grid is probably shot too.

Really, I can let it run but it'd have to power one thing and one thing only. Pure wind-power isn't enough to be the salvation of any entire 3/4 of a state. So as long as it's maybe powering a few odd nearby telegraph machines I can turn a blind eye this once.

Really, water doesn't become radiated. I forget the specific region for it, but water doesn't absorb and hold radiation the way you're thinking it would or should. In fact, water's a good insulator for radiation. You could technically swim in a storage pond with radiation at the bottom and not suffer any effects until you get within arms reach of the material at the bottom.

Of course the people storing it wouldn't let you for safety reasons, don't want ass holes proving they can and swimming to the bottom of their deep storage wells to show they can. If anything the biggest effect I'm aware of that radioactive materials has on water is in thermal radiation, where water will boil off of active nuclear fuel for power-plants making it necessary for some measures to keep the insulating, cooling water in.

Really, the risk of "irradiated" water is contaminated particles in the water. But spread over time in the flow of the water and settling somewhere far away would dilute the danger of radiation sickness to the point it doesn't simply matter. Unless you have Chernobyl upriver from you which would require filtration to catch the radiated particles flowing in from up-stream and this being continually refreshed by being continually exposed to a source of radiation. But you should really ask Kiev about their water in the end; their down-river from Chernobyl.
