As this cache has been out of action for too long and the cache owner has not performed any maintenance, 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 the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

I noticed that this cache has been in need of owner maintenance for an extended period of time well in excess of the period of "a few weeks" as contemplated by the cache guidelines published on Geocaching.com. While I feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for you and block other caches from entering the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time, we can't do so forever. Please either repair/replace this cache, or archive it (using the archive listing link in the upper right) so that someone else can place a cache in the area, and geocachers can once again enjoy visiting this location.

If you plan on repairing this cache, please log a note to the cache (not email) and then repair the cache within the next 30 days so I don't archive the listing for non-communication/action.

Found what seemed to be the remains if it.

Here cache tftc?

Looks well muggled to death.

Well.. I found the remains of it..

Also only found pieces of it.

There are 4 needs maintenance logs since July, Co hasn't logged on since Aug, and the contain is smashed to bits, no log.

Logged as a find but only because I found GZ and the remnants of the cache. Disappointing.

Got down to one metre but wasn't there

Found it. But some douche has smashed it. Hopefully will be replaced soon.

As with many others before, I will log this as a "found" because the cache has not yet been disabled. There were indeed remnants of a cache container , hence located GZ OK, and would have been able to sign log. Presume the cache will be reinstated ..... Because this is such a great location for one. Thanks for the effort of creating the cache and hope it will become a longstanding landmark geocache. TFTC

Sadly I found the cache smashed.

Still just found bits of destroyed cache

Sigh

Found half a lid and a few shards of plastic.

I will also los this cache as a found.
The box was destroyed and it wasn't disabled.

The next Point is, we are from Germany and have no chance to go to the location again early soon.

Greetings from Germany
Mäuseschreck & Chrissie_Berlin

Together with Mäuseschreck I found this smashed box!

Cache is in tatters---requires urgent TLC to reinstate.

A very forlorn cache. TFTC

Found remains of cache. Another quick (:/) find? TFWLOTC (thanks for what's left of the cache)

Found the remnants. Scratched my name onto a corner of the lid.

In pieces...Not even sure that I can logged as "found it"

Found the remains

remains only found

found remains of cache, no sign of TB

We found the remaining part of the cache, the container is destroyed, mawic will log a nfm.

This one needs maintainance. We found bits of the cache. The railstation building is magnificent. Just take a quick look inside...!!

Or at least the remains of it. It would be nice to see this spot up and going again!

Found only a piece of a systema box... i think that was the cache... maintenence

Yip found the smashed remains of the cache. Nothing to sign though.

Well found what is left of the box. If I could have found the log book then it would have written my 100th Cache find. I hope this can still count.

Good spot, hope you replace the container soon.

Box smashed no sign of log. Needs repair

Broken

definitely in need of repair, what a sad state, waterlogged and could not sign.

just couldnt sign it, looked worse than loo paper down a toilet!!!

Xtikix wet and damaged. High muggle area. Needs fixing. Sorry no time tftc

Box is broken and needs repair.
Besides this it was an easy find. Cheers!

South Island take 2! I got a second chance to travel around south, so I'm trying to pick up a few caches I didn't have time for the first go around. Finally made it to Dunedin & decided to do a little night caching. But yes, sad cache. Wish I could've fixed or hidden better. TFTC!

Smashed and soggy, not a happy cache

Cold early morning visit. Everything wet

Sunny at gz. Container is broken and log wet. Not well covered.

Found it

This was my first find in Dunedin during my vacations in NZ.
Really nice railway station!
TFTC!

Good Fun Thanks heaps

Nice easy quick find at the local station. Container still smashed and contents damp.

Tranks for the Cache. New Zealand is so amazing

Greets from Germany!

LordFisch

Quick find but damp and new container needed. TFTC.

Whilst visiting Dunedin on the "Radiance of the Seas" we grabbed this one.
Nice easy find with a little muggle-dodging. However the cache really does need a new container, it's just about down to a plastic bag only !

TFTC (just love your city !)

Easy find, cache not in good condition.
Fabulous building, in fact the inside is must see.

TFTC

Lots of people going for the train. Managed to find it without being noticed. TFTC

Got this one at the end of the Tieire Gorge Train ride today. Great ride and TFTC!

Found by the happy campers
No TBs in it.

First find in Dunedin for the glücklichen campers. Cache is not in very good condition! Needs a new cache container

Cache container is smashed, needs replacing

Bag

Find # 3074 @ 11:15 on our cruise around NZ

Nice easy find. Love the workmanship of the station.

The cache container is severly uv damaged and no longer servicable or waterproof.

I took a bear TB.

Thanks for placing the cache and for bringing me here.

Found this cache easily for dropping a TB

walked from shuttle drop off, after a nice 8 mile bus ride from the ship Oosterdam. Cache is damaged without a lid , but fortifided with plastic bags. I dropped a TB from USA so it could hop around NZ and Australia maybe before comeing back to US. I took a local TB that wanted to be in this cache, but I'm not sure it wants to go to America.
fun caching here.

Arrived on a cruise today and took the scenic railway--nice trip. Afterwards we had time for a couple of caches before heading to the town center and backto the ship. Thanks for the concenient cache. It needs a new container.

Note book getting wet

dorpped off travel bug it wanted to go to Dunedin and cadbury's chocolate it has been there

17:20 - I really like this station TFTC

00:00 tftc

Found 6:47pm , find # 1963
Currently travelling through the South Island of New Zealand.
Today we drove from Mt Cook village to Dunedin, through one of the most cache rich country areas I've seen.
Wish we had more time to get bigger numbers, but had to just choose random caches in places where we wouldn't lose too much time.
This was find number 19 for the day.
A bold hide and easily found, but it's in a shocking state and needs some serious owner love. Log soaked, container broken, bundled up in a plastic bag with a temp log in a mint tin.

Thanks ZCA.

A magnificent building, one of the most beautiful buildings I've seen! TFTC!

What a beautiful railway station. Favourite point for that and thanks for the cache! Cheers from Sweden

Just realised that I had to log this as well as a needing maintenance log. TFTC

During our trip through the beautiful Kiwi_Land we landed in Dunedin.

Greetings from Holzmichel DD and his wife from Germany

The log book remains saturated and the container is broken. Good spot for the cache

Poor thing is in sad shape. I put it all in a large zip lock.

The log was wet and the container is shot.

FOUND WITH THE LOST PATROL WHILE TOURING NEW ZEALAND ABOARD THE DIAMOND PRINCES.
WHAT A BEAUTIFUL STATION.

What a beautiful railway station!
We looked around, were inside, outside...it was very amazing.
And we found the cache before we had to go to Akaroa.

Thank you for showing us this great building.
