After a late night at work I realised I had a cache calendar gap and scoured the map to find a likely find with a slight detour on the way home.
This cache was a creative hide with a unique twist to find at night.
I was a little cautious given the nature of the structure but soon the log was in hand and I’m ready to go get some dinner
Thanks for the adventure semi on the way home

I collected this cache after completeing the nearby Sidetracked cache. After a short search about in the dark I soon made the find. Thanks for placing this one here!
Be careful of all the electricity but the bottom is fine there are some stuff there but only one object contains it. (Hint: it’s metal but not magnetic.)
Very cool hide.Dropped by to find on way home from friend’s house in area. Was attracted to location of hide found relatively quickly. TFTC Favourite from me.
This one was a nice quick and easy spot as I approached. I’ve seen plenty of this variety of cache but never done quite in this way, I’ve actually been planning a hide that’s almost identical to this one, maybe I’ll get around to it eventually! Got the log signed and returned as found.
Happy to report that the cache is in good condition and the log nice and dry.

Have faith in yourself, the place you think it’s at is the place it’s at. Had to touch it a few times before actually getting to it tftc!
A sneaky hide as a fellow cacher drove past notifying us that it might be muggled or missing. Not to fret though, we made the great discovery!! This cache was made perfectly
Out caching tonight with Lynjoh and Pilot the trusty hound, we arrived on site and examined the structure. It took a while for the cache to reveal itself, but we then were able to leave our marks.
Thank you Combust4. A favourite point coming your way.

Hmmm, not sure a terrain1 (wheelchair accessible) applies here. The obvious T1 places were searched and then the less obvious and the the final location which revealed the cache.
Took Nothing, Left Nothing.

With the sun beating down on us during a hot afternoon I was trying to find this cache quickly.
However this it hide was very tricky and wow that was an incredibly good hiding spot.
The cache was in great shape and the logbook was nice and dry. TFTC

Great cache, with a bit of risk due to location. Takes an eye for detail and logic. Fantastic placing. TFTC
Clever hiding! Third time back after thinking other's clues. Recommend to come in a cool day. Thanks for all the fun!
Couldn't find it even the second time passing. wull come back in a cooler day

Last caching day of the year, and last chance to get out and about for a few laughs with my buddy Rebel Acts.
Certainly didn't feel like a weekday, absolutely love Christmas holidays.
Cheers for the cache and the opportunity to add a smiley to the map.

Glad it didn’t take too long to find because the sun was getting pretty scorchy. Surprised the log was in good condition considering environmental exposure?
Quietly day here with a few passers by. Just smile and nod. Haha. Thanks for the cache!

Found it after walking around and around. Eventually apotted it and signed the log. Great place for train spotting. Will have to keep in mind when the steam trains are back up and running for there special service.
Very good spot and a nice view of an approaching metro train. Not sure if it's possible for the log to stay dry if it rains!
With an endless stream of muggles walking dogs and driving past, it wasn't easy to get in and out without being seen. Whilst I tried for stealth, hubby tried for 'who cares I'm gonna find the cache'. Sure enough cache was found by hubby before I could even start looking -TFTC
That’s the smallest geocache I’ve ever seen! A little dangerous, but very compact
Yep, I can just imagine the competition for this spot come steam train spotting time!
A clever little cache - nicely done!! TFTC

Was the first place we looked, but the second time we looked there we actually found it.
Nice quick find for us here today. Thank you for placing this cache for us to find.
Very sneaky hide. I found it but discounted it. Muggle husband said take another look and there it was.
Found this cache last Sunday. Amazing, intricate hide. Took us around half an hour to find it.
This was a fast park-n-grab/target of opportunity whilst in the area this morning.
The location seemed vaguely familiar to me - I think I might have come here once years ago at night, and made a cursory look before deciding it might be easier with some light.
In any case once I had exhausted the more seemingly obvious places I moved onto the tricksier ones, though weirdly enough then I did locate the hide (and it is indeed tricksy) it was somewhere I'd first thought it might be. Should have gone with my instincts...
Signed the log (which echoing others' comments could do with a refresh soon, as its almost full, rust-stained and a bit squishy), thanks the cache, Combust4.

Found after a fair bit of searching. As others have said the log could do with some maintenance. TFTC
Clever but also exactly where I thought it would be
Log looks to be quite full

Around the area my friend and I,
No cache did we spy.
Until we took a closer look...
We were shook!
Tftc!
Log is damp and rusty, needs maintenance.

Is looked for this once a few years ago with no luck. After gleaning hints from previous logs I thought I knew what I was looking for and with few muggles around this morning I found I was right.
Thanks Combust4 for the cache

Found it!
Great cache. Pen wouldn’t work so I logged my find with photos as I tend to do.
Cheers

Took me a few tries to find, had noticed the spot previously but assumed it was too exposed to delve deeper. Was pleasantly surprised on further investigation to discover it today! Log is in decent condition.
Found. My gps was taking me near the tracks and it was a couple metres off. I’m glad this cache is in a safe distance from the train. I didn’t except this to be one.
With the number of DNFs logged for this cache, and a recent DNF for me elsewhere earlier, I was expecting disappointment, so it was a huge and pleasant surprise to find this one almost immediately.
Lovely log setup, Combust4; hadn’t seen one quite like that before.

TFTC. Clever hide. Nicely integrated into the structure. Luckily geo hubby spotted the anomaly.
Couldn’t find it . Should have been relatively easy to find because it’s an open area.
I picked up this one early in the morning today .. because of the public holiday it was easy to search as there were no muggles in sight. I was a bit worried about touching anything on the structure but the cache was found just by looking.
Had a good look but no luck. There is one spot I thought would be in for sure but no.
Out for a night of caching, loving the opportunity to get about and explore. I circled this for a little while before zeroing in on a few suspects, and one turned out to be the culprit. Great hide! TFTC!
I probably my 3rd or 4th attempt at this cache and I found it almost straight away!! Awesome camo, TFTC.
This one took a serious search, but found the clever cache eventually. First ever cache for a muggle friend who was with me. TFTC!
