As there's been either no response from the cache owner, no cache to find or log to sign, or it's been longer than 30 days 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) once the cache is in place, and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it. Should you replace the cache after 30 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention.

I am temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.

Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

If you require more time please be sure to post a note (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require.

For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.

No luck with this one today unfortunately. It appears the area has been flooded, not sure if it's still here.

I too had a good look around. Lots relating to the hint but no success. Mid you I love the bridge and creek.
 
13-May-14
Looked for ages and ages but could not find, like the location though
 
On our way from Perth to Darwin we saw many great things and places - many of them thanks to geocaching! We thank the owners for sharing their favorite spots with us by hiding their caches!
 
16-Mar-14
Looked and looked and looked but couldn't find it. There has been some water down the creek recently so it may have moved on to the harbour. Will try again.
 
27-Jun-13
Have looked for this one a couple of times now with no luck.
 
26-Apr-13

Found this cache sitting out in the open with no log book inside. We replaced the log book and returned the cache to somewhere where we could utilise the magnet on it.

24-Jun-12
DNF today. Searched long and hard but no sign. Might need checking
 
05-Feb-12
Checked this one today and container is in place with log and pencil nice and dry.
 
25-Oct-11
Found it without any sign of its clue and there wasn't a logsheet either. High and dry though, which is just as well as it looks like a lot of water went by underneath recently. Thanks Truders.
 
22-Oct-11
Have driven past this cache many times and actually took the time to stop & locate today..... Another Interesting piece of local history... Thanks Trudders 4TC Smile
 
05-Aug-11
Nice one. Thanks for the hide.

Found whilst on our way back to Katherine from Darwin. Cache is safe & sound & in tact complete with log & lid. Suggest last entry was not the right container. SL, TFTC.
 
14-Jul-11
I found a green container in the creek. It was open and empty. No log even unfortunately. I put in a toy or 2 and hid it on higher ground near the track. Sorry, I couldn't work out where it should have been exactly as my gps was 8m out.
 
14-Jun-11
new container and log ..please be sure to cover cache well when you replace.
 
10-Jun-11
Contents were a bit wet. Found a fairly big spider here. Cheers Gav [8811]

An interesting old rail bridge. TFTC
 
26-May-11
Found after wandering along the creek bed.
Cache was a tad exposed, but is always going to be safe here.
Thanks for the info Trudders, nice work.
 
18-Apr-11
This one appears to have survived the rains quite nicely. After a quick search I had the container in hand and found the log a little damp, but ok to sign... [^] The grass growth in the area will work to make this a little more ghost like in coming weeks... Surprised

Cheers Trudders

Another slice of history so close to the road. Driven past hundreds of time but never stopped
TFTC Cool

The partner tried to find this one but after waiting in the car for 5 minutes decided to help and found it straight away much to his disgust. The cahce was water logged and we were unable to sign the log. TFTC

I huffed a puffed but i could not find it.

Today was meant to be a CFD (caching free day) so the housework could get done. Well..... WanderingAus put a swift stop to that by publishing not one, but two, new caches within driving distance (sort of) Razz. A lazy 250 Km round trip both caches were in hand and this was a cache along the way we had been meaning to get to

WanderingAus wandered by on day 32 of a "climatic refugee" trip and made a very quick and easy GAFF 1 find due to the indecent exposure of the container. Before I left I gave it a good hiding (well, a bit better than I found it).

My find No 1526, TNLNSL.

*Recommended* *Overall Experience: 2*

Good to see some more remains of the old North Australian Railway and after a short search the cache was spotted.TFTC
 
25-Apr-09
Walking in from the right direction the cache was quickly spotted and retrieved.
 
13-Apr-09
Decided to have another crack at this one. Found it after about 5 minutes this time as it was slightly exposed. It must have been buried the last time I checked this location. GZ had me about 6 metres from the eventual location. TFTC
 
12-Apr-09
THE GPS showed the different location but luckily Ms Bushies2 kept on looking and she found it! Thanks Trudders for the hide.
 
05-Apr-09
Discovered on my return to Katherine.

Got a new container. So its all good to find. =D
 
31-Dec-08
Had a good look for this one. More like a ghost cache than a ghost train. My GPS must have been out as well as there was nothing at ground zero.
 
30-Dec-08
Found it after a hint from NTStrom as our GPS had us a long way off. Cache container has a small hole (probably a rodent) in it so will need matineance soon. TFTC.
 
26-Dec-08
Found this one straight away. Nice easy find. Thanks Trudders.

We couldn't resist this one being so close to us even though it was 10pm. Made all the geokids and their friends that were staying put their shoes on and off we went. Very good spot didn't even know this bridge was here. TFTC and the FTF. Well done Crystal and Brendan!! shadowrangers' are proud of you. Left a koala badge.
