As this structure has now been moved and too close to another cache I am archiving it...Thank you to everyone who found this cache...
I'm assuming there was once a photo frame here. There's not here now, hence a DNF.
I'm taking this off-line as it appears the structure that the cache is on has apparently gone...I will check it ASAP..

Toot, toot look out for the trains
After looking at some old photos in the nearby hotel last night, it’s hard to imagine how busy this station once was. It’s great seeing that the building is still in use today and being looked after rather well.

This is one of the few spots in Moonta I remember from working here for 6 weeks about 12 years ago. It's certainly been prettied up and looks very colourful. No photo because my arms aren't long enough, sorry!
Out and about early, park empty so far. Quick search and found the cache. TFTC MargieH.
First day of school holidays and we did a easy morning hunt before going to the Moonta Train to visit the Sweet Shop
Good start to the school holidays.

quick find. found after completing the nearby geo art. found on route to our accommodation.
Found with Mogni. Mogni wants to get to 20, 000 by the Rutherglen Mega in Victoria and make that event her 20, 000 th. So we went out to complete the " THE Sad Fisher series " and stay in Moonta for the night. We got 150 finds for the weekend even though we started out at lunch time Saturday. Any damaged caches found where replaced with a new container and any logs found full or almost full were replaced or a extra scroll added. The weather couldn't make up it's mind, over 30 on Saturday and it rained almost all of the way home.

Solo on this trip so no photo of me in “costume” so I got one of the beautiful building instead. Hope you like it.
On a day trip from Adelaide to the YP.

First find on the copper coast holiday of the hamocachers. Dad cacher was the keen eyes this time.
DNF Oh well, a reason to return. Might be easier when the info centre is closed.
This would be a tricky one with muggles around, but thankfully I came after hours and found it at the obvious location. TFTC
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 listing and post a new 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.

Another cache found with richlink on our 2022 South Australian Adventure.
A beautiful sunny day to day, what a treat. We have enjoyed our time travelling the YP. Fantastic towns, ruins, beaches and cliffs. Thanks to all the COs for guiding us around your state.

Day 9 of our school holiday adventures sees us exploring the upper west coast of the Yorke finding a few random caches as we go. Easy one here - thanks for the cache!
Today we attempted to complete the caches around Moonta we hadn’t already found.
Many thanks for the hide Margieh

Nice cache in an average location. Hard to find without Uninformed Ones seeing what you are doing but a great find nonetheless. TFTC

Headed over to Moonta today, to do some family stuff, and to knock off a few caches! Thankfully there were no Muggles around, so a quick find and sign was had! TFTC
