Hello,

We went down on the weekend to check on this one and it has either crept to another location or is gone, we couldnt find it.
I dont really like nanos anyway so we will replace with a small hidden nearby soon.

Not really !! We had been traveling in WA for 4.5 weeks and didn't know that the cache was missing. So, we hunted and hunted all over that old # 7 and, of coarse, we DNF. So, I figure, since it really wasn't there, we should get credit for our effort.

We searched for this one in the rain and unfortunately we have to log a dnf. It really was hidden "wheelie well". No doubt we'll try find this again next time we are down this way.
 
06-Jul-10
I'm afraid it has to be a DNF.
 
06-Jul-10
The Coasters take no delight in having to log a DNF, but this one eluded us after a reasonable search. It may have been ‘hidden wheelie well’, but which wheelie? The Coasters will return another day.

Argh ANOTHER NANO... I've never seen so many in such a short space of time and Ive cached inner Sydney! Got this one after a short search today. Luckily most people were distracted by the festival down town leaving it nice and quiet here today on the off side of the loco. Cheers!

Very busy at the cafe so only looked on the off side, and if it is there it is well hidden . Geo Kid enjoyed climbing over the train Thanks

A wheeeeliee great place. SL TFTC

TheKlaas and El Campo wonder that those millions of muggle children playing on the railway could not find it. There are nicer trains in town, but here you get the better coffee!

Leachy found this one in less than 5 minutes! He says it's right in front of your face!

Found this with Sunshine Team as my second introduction to Geocaching. Am addicted now! Thanks for that Sunshine. Had great fun finding it...crawled everywhere and looked very suspicious to some tourist muggles but found it when nobody was around. Loved the size of it - clever hide! Thanks for the thrill and the intro to finding micro caches
 
16-Jan-10
Unbelievable! After all the previous logs we were prepared for a long and strenous search... And then geogirl knelt down and grabbed it after 20 seconds with the words could this be it? A great spot! Have breakfast in the Mill café to observe for muggles first, the iced chocolate is sensational Wink TFTH

Fourth attempt at this one, Once we found it we wondered why we missed it so many times, have walked away covered in spider webs and greasy rust stained clothes quite a few times, all in the name of caching, Co Ords kept leading us to the back of the train where we searched mostly, Today i tried searching from the other end back and Yippee.
Thanks for the Torture, I mean Fun "Team Carnage"

An easy find by a hawkeyed geowife. TFTC.

took some hunting but found it with the clue.

Cache found and logged using GeoScout http://www.navstation.co.uk/geoscout
 
Couldn't find it!!! Even with the clue!!! Also didn't want to go sticking my hands in amongst the spider webs too much!!!
 
13-Dec-09
Found this while on my morning walk, nice hiding place out of sight from passing muggles. The log was a little hard to retrieve from the container however..
 
26-Nov-09
What a great find in beautiful Pemberton, doing bit of Caching on our honeymoon. TFTC

Having an interest in steam locomotives, I had to find this cache before Calypso62 did. Based on the notes, I had a pretty good idea what to look for - however eyes not as good as they were. After some 15-20 minutes, I found what I was looking for. Brought back memories of photographing steam hauled trains here some 40 years ago. SL TFTC

We needed the clue to narrow our search area but even so there were still 1000's of possible hiding spots. Three of us searched for about 15 minutes until Geotooter discovered the cache location. He DOES know a thing or two about steam trains!!! Wink

Quickly had log signed and returned the cache ready for the next poor sucker.... er.... I mean Geocacher!!! Big Grin
 
10-Oct-09
I agree with Team Carnage, if I hadn't seen a Nano I would'nt have found it.
 
07-Oct-09
A quick easy find. A pity it has been let go and only patched up with sheets of tin, it would have been a wonderfull old engine.
Signed log and replaced.

Cheers,
Lead 'n Lace.

muggle city, with wee tackers and their over protective parents all over the train today. took plenty of time and waited and waited until a quick moment where we could start looking. fortunately it was hidden in the first spot we looked.

Hard to find but perserverence paid off (had to go to the hint though!). Thanks for the cache.

Let the youngens do this one, The old bones arnt what they used to be. Took photos for Mrs DERF to keep her happy
 
25-Sep-09
Damn. I would not have even noticed this one. Thanks to some keen eyes from my brother and its all good. Thanks to my brother as well that we had to search for it in the leaf litter in the dark. Silly boy dropped it. 10 mins later we found it again. Can we claim that as another chache?
 
25-Sep-09
very nice hide team carnage, I picked the place where the hide would be and having alitte experiance with nano's helps

handling them is another story Red Face

another find by team derf
 
22-Sep-09
Big train, small cache, but we found it. TFTC.
 
03-Sep-09
A relatively easy find - often the case with nanos when you find them quickly or not at all. Or maybe the previous finder was kind. TFTC
 
22-Jul-09
Very tricky! More Nano than I thought but thanks to your clue we eventually tracked it down!
Thanx Espercache

next time

We had two attempts at this on different days also, both times for about half hour, we walked away very frustrated as this was our 2nd DNF, we felt we searched everywhere but the right spot, if you could provide an extra clue for us so next time we are down there we will have another go, Hope its still there.
We walked away with another DNF down the road as well ! at the RSL Gun, All had fun none the less.

Regards & Thanks for the Hunt & the History

There were quite a few people enjoying the park, but far enough away to allow me to search for the cache. I used the hint, and it didn't take me too long to turn up the cache. Thanks for the hunt, and the history.
 
18-Apr-09
Little ripper. Not so sure about the spider webs though. Many have been removed in our efforts to find this one. Now surrounded by pink tape as the engine seems to be deemed unsafe. great hunt. TFTC
 
11-Apr-09
'Yahoo' a FTF on a busy Easter Weekend, too many muggles on the way through town so we called in on the way back from the cascades, and wow I have never seen a 'nano' before
