This spot is no longer viable. And anyways, the QLD Railways welding sheds and the tracks have all been removed.
The clue that was in here will be resurrected shortly in a new cache to be placed nearby.

Today we targetted this series of caches while staying at Lawnton. Being late in the date we completed only some of these caches, Impressed that all co-ords were accurate, looking forward to completing the rest TFTC
First of the series that didn't have resident yobbos hanging around. Nice hide TFTC
Thanks for another Yobbo,
Found on a trip to OZ for the Stanthorpe MEGA. It is all about the numbers this trip, Ms KR decided to stay in NZ!
Thanks for the hide.

Rhyssa 6 and I came to this cache from another, nearby. We parked the car and checked our phones. Hmmm....they were pointing into someones yard. there was also a muggle just there, watching us curiously while he worked in his garden. We drove a little further down the road and parked the car again. This time, our phones pointed us in a different direction. That looks better. We crossed the road and strolled to GZ. Lucky for us, when we found the cache, we were out of site of the gardening muggle. We signed the log, returned the cache to its hiding spot and headed off to the next one.
We pulled up here and there was one of the native yobbos doing some gardening, maybe he's the cache? Ok, maybe not, but he was certainly keeping a close eye on us. With both gps's telling us the cache was off in someone's yard we decided to drive a little further to get away from the watchful yobbo.
We got out of the car and both gps's quickly pointed themselves in a more likely direction back the way we'd come. Luckily for us the cache was on the opposite side of gz from the gardening yobbo.

Find #1355
After some vehicular problems, which looked like shutting down our caching for a few days (NOT!), we decided to hire a Substitute Geo-beast to keep things flowing!
This was a quick park & grab.
No dramas here!

Slow Puncture were out with Angela of Team DNA for a quick start to 2015.
This is a Prime Time to be caching. Kerry found this one whilst Luke stared at the rail welding facility. The Captain is not the only cacher with an interest in all things rail-related!

Off on an adventure with Slow Puncture to clear up some of our map!
Mr SP and I were more interested in the nearby Railway welding facility and Mrs SP made the find.

We did not expect to find a cache there but there it was, just waiting for us! Thanks.
!!!!!tftc!!!!! Popped out to grab another cache between the downpours of rain ,this one I found on the ground but placed back again. All good with the cache ! Grabbed the clue .
With the light fading light bf found this cache on the ground... returned it to a better hiding place... tftc...
Out in my newly acquired hot wheels for a day of caching with Lost2Found, we had decided today was the day we would both finish the Ban-Yobbo series.
Woot Woot - the last Ban-Yobbo. We then enjoyed the comfort of the air conditioned car to decipher the puzzle - definitely a team effort. Compared our answer with the hint from the CO and off we went to find the final!

Tricky spot, geodaughter got attacked by little hairy grubs while trying to put it back, but thanks for the cache!
Super quick park n grab couldn't be easier. Thanks so much for this series, will be back to complete the rest some day soon. Log remains dry. Left TB stamp to be discovered.
Nearly muggled out but my choice of clothing (flanno +sneakers) meant that I blended in amongst the ban-yobbo crowd coming out of a nearby laundry(??). Let my Geo dog to the gardening whilst I waited for the crowd to diminish. Quick grab. Recovered and returned.TFTC
Not much traffic around on a Saturday afternoon. This made for an easy U-turn and quick find. Thanks Pprime!
Stopped for a break, on our way back to Landsborough. Grabbed a few caches, in this area.
We found a great variety of hides, all in good condition.
Many thanks for placing this cache, Pprime (P`), for us and others to find.

Couldn't get out of the car before biggreenballoon snaffled the cache with ease. TFTC!
Up to 5 now for this series tonight with Silkiest_Bear, parked and got out and spotted where GZ would be, even without the GPS. Had a quick look and within no time had it in our hand. Having the torch always helps haha. Also good old cachers eye ... or may just common sense? TFTC!

TFTC. #306. I came through a bit close to end of school time but all seemed ok for the pick up.
Our 200th find. Gps was playing up. Cache was found by geogirl while we walked straight past it. Tftc
Out for the day with Bristracker to primarily pick up solved puzzle caches from my large list of solved but not picked up caches, and to do the Ban Yobbo series. Another quick find, TFTC.
Whilst waiting for a bus to pass at a nearby cache we wandered here for a quick find!
Working on the railroad would be more appropriate for this one. Found it fairly quickly. Had some public transport to find.
As gardening is the job for this yobbo I enjoyed this find . Another yobbo brought to heel and clue collected. Tftc Pprime (P')
Out on a maintenance run and yes sadly this one was goneski. Replaced with a new container and a former log that had been dried out some time ago. Rehid properly although I may have to find another spot for this one as it isn't a great spot now. For now though no change - back up and running.
looked for 15 minutes but could not find. Lots of muggles driving past so was a bit intimidated. Will be back
Easy easy find, but like others I think a muggle is unearthing it, so sorry to next cacher I did cover it well, obvious spot to a cacher but covered well, so maybe we will now know if it is being muggled. TFTC O0ps forgot was with Rusty85 who hadn't even got out of car, it was that easy or should say that uncovered...
what can I say but I was sort of with Jammo25 but she beat me out of the air-conditioned car. TFTC
After the previous DNF, this one was a lot easier. Waited for muggle in car to drive away, then moved in for the quick find. TFTC.
Find #1088 at 14:13 as the family again sat in the car at GZ and left the work to me.
This one was in plain sight. Looks like a few local muggles have already found it and signed the logs. Yobbo muggles must have better caching manners than some others!
I covered it slightly better than I found it.
Thanks for the cache, Pprime (P`).

I can't remember. Daddy found it. Last before lunch! We went to a cafe for lunch afterwards. I don't know. Thank you for the cache.
TFTC. Lot easier than the one just up the road which we still haven't located. ::;($;;$@
Pulled up right beside the cache. Found it quickly but took a while to re- cover so be careful with camo.

What a dreadful place! I felt depressed as hell just looking around this spot. Luckily the coordinates were precise as usual and I could be in and out very quickly. The bag is working well within the container and all is fine so TFTC and I hope I can wrap this series up sometime soon. (No yobbos were harmed in the finding of this cache.)
I had just seen Geo Wife off on a plane to the USA and being all this way up the Ban-Yobbo Series caught my eye.
I had a good 4 hours to spare so I wasted no time in heading up here.
Driving towards this one I was thinking I would miss out on it this time due to work going on all along the nature strip but they kindly had left a good spot right next to GZ so the find was quick and easy.
Thanks Pprime TFTC SL

Came by early this morning to find one on the way to work. It seems like only yesterday I was in the area...oh hang on....I was!
