Description
Trains have been coming to Armidale since the Great Northern Railway opened in February 1883. The line, now known as the Main North Line, was the original line between Sydney and Brisbane however this required a change of guage at Wallangarra. With Armidale being the end of the line, the Xplorer passenger train that operates to and from Sydney, stays overnight.
The cache is not at the listed co-ordinates. Solve the puzzle to find the last three numbers in both the South and East co-ordinates.

It's not a write note! It's an FTF on a mmmm puzzle solved during game period ! Yay! I really enjoyed the mmmm game.
I ended up deciding to stay in a motel last night instead of sleeping in my car. The motel just across the rail ended up being where I stayed. I didn't realise how close I was till I went to find this cache. haha.
Whilst it was quite quiet, I did have to wait a couple of times for walkers to pass by before searching for and reaching for the cache. I do enjoy that blank log book moment where you check both ends of the book and a smile creeps right up the sides of your face. You can't exactly do a dance in a public place like this when you are trying not to be noticed. haha.
Thanks for this fun puzzle and the cache also.

Rated: for Overall Experience
Oh my goodness. I have never seen anything like that before. It just goes to show experience plays a huge part in solving mystery caches. I managed this solve after a PAF who headed me in the right direction. I had tried my normal methods for image solving without any luck.
TFTM Geono I love it!

Spending time with family today meant sneaking in moments to solve some mmmm puzzles. I solved this one in the afternoon whilst 2 of the 3 grandies were asleep and their mums baked a birthday cake for their dad. I was sprung with this geocache open on my phone but they were okay with it thankfully. Haha. Thanks for the puzzle.
