As there's been either no response from the cache owner, no cache to find or log to sign, or it's been a number of months since the last owner note. I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future (next 30 days), just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

Oh Dear... I think this one was swept away with the floods! Found the bridge, found the 'in-between' searhed all spots that I thought could be the spot, but tell tale signs of fast flowing flood waters makes me think this cache has floated away. I think it needs to be archived or replaced. I had some TB's to go in it too.

Looks like another victim of the recent floods....

Found at 1am. Was on the greyhound bus which had its meal break just down the road. I decided on why not make the meal break worth it. Had a 600 meter walk from the petrol station to gz. Once at gz there was a truck nearby pulled over. So I had to be quiet. Found in the first place I looked. TFTC murf
 
22-Jul-11
Fuel stop and driver change on the way home also became a cache break Smile A quick grab, took the turtle geocoin east with us.

Thanks murf
 
17-Jul-11
Had the clues...and the GPS...and still took 30+ mins to find it! Need to stop looking up and pay attention to what's right under our noses! Fantastic cache but geoteens were panicking about catching planes. Apparently three other lots found it today. Took pop n dog and will set it free in far north Queensland near a beach. Left a pen. Enjoy the search

This is the 1039th cache find for WazzaAndWenches.

After a few days of holidays with the Wench and the Wenchette I think I have earned a break away on my own. Of course I'll have to look for a few caches along the wayBig Grin

I've been aware of this railway bridge for quite some time and have thought it would make a great spot for a cache. Lo and behold one already exists here. Next time I'll have a look at the geomaps before drawing mental pictures.

Cache found quickly although passing muggle traffic made the retrieval and return a matter of careful timing.

No trackables inside so I left a TB for the next finder.

Thanks Murf.

Found quickly on a very hot afternoon. Dropped off a TB. Thanks for the cache.
 
23-Jan-11
I am sorry to report there did not seem to be any TBs present
Loved the bridge though. What did they do about trucks in the old days?
 
15-Jan-11
Found easily enough and took the Geocoin. There is no more TB's in the cache so I don't know where all those listed have gone. The cache is in good order and nice and dry. We left a hot wheels car.
 
13-Jan-11
After reading the hint, we had this cache in hand. We haven't found an ammo tin in a good long while, so it was a good break from our previous trip in Adelaide, with only eclipse tins to be found EVERYWHERE.

There was no TB's in here today. So i would say they are lost :/

Left ROT13 coin, hopefully it wont be lost and picked up by the next cacher and continue its journey Smile

found on our journey from Wagga to Renmark.  Although there appears to be travellers waiting the cache was empty - maybe they got an earlier lift.



Thanks

Great secure cache in an accessable location (although the thick grass was a bit of a worry, but I assume that this would not be a year round issue). TNLN.
 
21-Oct-10
WanderingAus wandered by on day 163 of our annual Climatic Refugee trip, on our way home to the West, and made a very quick and easy GAFF 0 find.

My find No 3184, LCC, TNLNSL, dropped Tempio Travel Bug (ref = TB14W16), also dropped my WanderingAus Happy New Year 2008 Gold GC and my WanderingAus GeoMobile TB in for a visit before grabbing them back again. There was no sign of any of the eight travellers listed as being in the cache. Had I known of the missing travellers I wouldn't have dropped Tempio.

*Recommended* *Overall Experience: 3*

Found at 15:15 while on a caching trip from Adelaide to Wollongong. Found the cache safe and sound and well hidden. I'm glad it is where it is - another few meters away and it would be sitting in water. Just the one TB in there, which I left for the next person. SL. TFTC.

A quick find with Just a cacher on of our dash back to the ACT. I remember driving under this bridge when it was still in operation. A shame to see another old railway line disappear. SL TNLN TFTC

Loved the old brigde here and wanted to play but strangley enough this early in on our trip west Oz lurker was keen to keep moving.

There were a few truckers nearby but happily they kept going to so we didn't have any trouble getting to the cache.
