Easy find. Local to the area and have drove past this cache a million times, so decided to stop today water damaged. Tftc

This was a smelly cache. Totally filled with water. Needs maintenance. Photo for proof though.
 
03-Feb-23
Thanks. Full of water. Emptied and put back.

I thought there was some kind of event on as I rose over the hill until I read the cache title. Took a while of walking around in circles before I spotted it. TFTC

What a surprise when driving over the hill to see all the cars and some pretty cool old buses in amongst it all,the property owner drove out as I was about to search,he was a really nice guys.we had a good chat I made out I was doing the tourist thing and he was more then happy to let me be to take a few pics....I had no troubles in making the find with good coords.
Thanks stacey-elmo for the cache

I thought a page cache would be easy to find... nup I looked everywhere and turned up nothing. Pretty disappointing to drive out all this way and not find the 2 caches along this road... bugga

We soon found this cache early this morning. The lid of the container was no longer sealed and so the container was full of water. The log book was also saturated and so it was impossible to sign, so we put a dry log sheet inside a small container and then put that container inside the original cache. Good also to have been able to resuscitate this cache with it not having been found since the 6th November 2018. Thanks so much for the cache at this rather different type of graveyard and greetings from Zimbabwe

Find No.3541
Found with sesblocker. These caches are additional to the 150 TRLT caches we found. The container is full of water.
Good coords made for a quick find.

Continuing on to this 1, another nice cache completed of a long day of caching in the area – a BIG thanks for the drive today – enjoyed it very much - TFTC / TFTH / SL – log is dry – was just able to sign it – new log book needed

On a 2 day caching adventure with GeodudeAU to clear some caches over the Blue Mountains. Starting from Hartley heading south to stop by Burraga Dam overnight, then heading north to Rockley and Oberon. We had a very successful trip, notching up 115 smileys, and exploring many out of the way places. Lots of interesting scenery and wildlife along the way. Thanks to all the COs for placing and maintaining these hides. TFTC

A symphony of old vehicles
 
20-Feb-18
Out with Brewmaker on a two day adventure. On this, our first day, we started at Hartley on the Jenolan Caves Mini Power Trail, and through Hampton. Then it was onto The Road Less Travelled touring trail (our third time out for this series) past Duckmaloi and Black Springs where we picked up the rest of the trail around Mount David and Burraga. We camped for the night at the Burraga Dam camping ground bside the lake - a beautiful place and one to remember.
It was perfect weather to be touring around the countryside, seeing lots of native birds and farm animals along the way. We also picked up some other associated caches along the way. Thanks to all of the cache owners for the clear directions, hints, and good easy hides. Only a couple took more than a minute to locate. TFTCs Big Grin
RIP Amadeus

Mudgee trip for The Road Less Traveled series. Day 2. Bumeroo Ford to Sofala via lots of back roads and Kelso. Today started with back road hopping to get missed TRLT caches and a few others. Someone was in the distance working on a bus while I grabbed this one.

Thanks.

this is such a sad place to see all the classics rotting back to nature Sad , cache log is toast, it's been wet 20 to many times, cheers

Had to take a few photos here for boss at home who would be very jealous of this collection. Tftc
 
12-Nov-17
A quick and easy drive by while we were in the area. What treasure trove of antique motoring. I am sure many collectors/ restorers would sacrifice their first born to get access to that collection, but I suspect that the owner would not part with any of it. Thanks for bringing us here and thanks for the cache.
 
25-Oct-17
This cache was found quickly and easily but sadly it is in very poor condition. The container is no longer waterproof and water had to be drained out of it. Doing this did not really solve the problem as the log book is just a very soggy piece of pulp which could not be signed. So our name does not actually appear there, but we did find it so we are claiming a smiley for our caching map.
 
25-Jun-17
Fitzy_1965 and I headed out for another day of caching in the Oberon-Lithgow area. Decided to pick up some out of the way caches and to fill in some gaps.

Quick find but couldn't sign as the cache was rather water logged. Clip on lid broke as I opened it as it is all a bit brittle now.

14264. Found during a great days caching around the Oberon-Lithgow region today with minniek.

Fantastic winter's day out caching through the Oberon-Lithgow area today. This was the next find of the day. Aha ! So this is where old Double-Decker Buses go to die!! Quick find at GZ. The logs a bit wet to sign unfortunately. Returned the cache, and we headed off to the next one.

Thanks stacey-elmo !! Great area for a cache !

Another good find while going from cache to cache today.
Enjoyed the drive around the area.
***Thanks for the fun.***


Needs a new log here.

TFTC Thank you for going to the effort of hiding this cache. You have shown us a new place and have helped make geocaching an enjoyable activity.

Cache is wet and LOG could not be written on.

TFTC found at night, drained fluid from the cache as the contents were drenched. Attempted signing the log with little success
 
27-Sep-16
What a cool collection of wrecks. I see lots of Leylands in there...and there is a P76 rotting at the front gate. Alas, the cache container was completely full of water. i wish I had something to replace it. I managed to put my initial on a saturated page of the log, but it really needs to be replaced.

A caching Weekend away with Wilbert67, so glad the weather cleared up, we had a fun trip and good company. We prepared our selves with many solved puzzled, and collected other caches along the way. love the Bathurst and the outer areas. This was a very scenic spot.
This cache was full of water and Log book was soaked , we left our sticker on the lid. this will need CO for some maintenance. TFTC

Found today with whitemushroom on our extended caching tour of the area. What an unexpected location, great collection of vehicles!

Thanks for the cache.
 
21-Apr-16
With a fistful of solved puzzles it was off on a History trail with rogerw3 ...

A diversion on the day's trail for some out of the way traditionals and goodness, this is a surprising locale. In the Autumn sunshine the near distant vehicles, particularly the double-decker, were a pleasing, if startling sight. Thanks for the cache stacey-elmo Smile

We pulled up to this cache and saw the property filled with cars, trucks and buses. I wasn't sure whether it was a business or the collection of some mad enthusiast. I suspected the latter. The cache was an easy find. It was our second for the new year on our trip west. Thanks

After the earthcache at Jenolan Caves, we headed towards Oberon on the next stage of our roadtrip. This was a small detour on the way. I enjoyed looking at the collection. I've always thought it would be fun to turn an old bus into comfy living quarters for roadtrips. One of the double deckers in the field would be even better - I could convert the top story into a library for bikerbuddy!

Thanks Smile

Found it, great view would love to go for a wander through all of those cars, buses etc really interesting
 
29-Nov-15
Stopped by Mozart Road after an afternoon of fossicking with Mrs. pjmpjm at nearby Blue Hill Quarry.

What a vehicular panorama!

Spotted the cache container but initially mistook it for something else.

Found about a centimetre of water inside. Cleaned and dried as best I could.

TNLNSL.

Hope this one gets some TLC soon.

Thanks to stacey-elmo for the hide!

Cache is wet and needs a good drying out.
 
20-Sep-15
Smile "WOW" what a find we were in Oberon for the weekend with the Vauxhall car club and as the rest of the club went home us and some muggle friends did a few caches and what a find this one was' no Vauxhalls but counted no less than 19 P76's in the distant and a few other makes and models. never seen so many P76's in one place not even in a Leyland showroom. the cache was water logged we drained the water out but it needs a water tight seal TFTH

Working my way up to Sydney via Woods Point, Jamieson, Craigs Hut, Mt Howit, Wonnangatta Station and Mt Buffalo. Then into NSW via Lithgow and the Blue Mountains. As well as seeing the sights. I wanted to knock off some of the caches along the way. With a lot of rough km's ahead of me i was unable to stop for them all. But i think i found a good few in my journey. Thanks all for placing them.

A pretty interesting place, so many old vehicles of all sorts of shapes & sizes.

I was thing I would be hunting around car bodies while I was planning my weekend trip.
Oh well. I searched among the usual places, here and there until it was in hand.
I had to tip a bit of water out of the container, and the logbook was damp within its bag.
 
29-Apr-14
Couldn't find this or the previous. Been a good season - grass thick, bark thick, fallen timber thick. Pocked everywhere with a short stick to no avail. Found a few Trigs so all good that listings (Geocaching Australia). Thanks.

The Mrs and kids loved checking the old cars out from the distance of the perimeter fence, a few oldies there I can remember too. Thanks for bringing us here TNLN Big Grin

A tricky find under all the fallen bark and branches, but we eventually found its hidey hole.
 
27-Dec-13
Found, lots of tree bark.

Watched the watch tick over to a new day and commenced my search. Very spooky little spot at night and not sure if anyone around the cars but decided to not shine torch too much.

Took a lot longer than I wanted but finally got there. Happy to be back in the car driving home.

What are all those doing out here? Quite a sight. The cache is still wet but we put in a replacement log in a plastic bag. Hope that it stays dry. TFTC
 
05-Sep-13
What a surprise. You never know what you are going to find along a country road. We dried the cache, replaced the log and tried to shelter the container. Hope it stays dry. TFTC
 
25-Aug-13
Out for a driving lesson with the youngest and a few caches on the way was also factored into our route.
The car yard has some neat vehicles at rest in it.
Nice and easy find but the log was wet.
Didn't have anything to fix it up so a maintenance visit might be needed.
Maybe a more water proof container will help too.

The GPS did not settle here this evening but caught a glimpse of something in the torchlight. The log is very damp.

Thanks for the cache stacey-elmo.

ON a very cold morning I made the find after a bit of a search. There are so many possiblities on just a few square meters!

We had been staying around the Jenolan Caves region and noticed this one was listed unfound from our phone pocket query of nearest caches. So this morning we checked it was still unfound and headed off. There where a few roos and rabbits about but we where amazed to see all the old buses in the paddock. Being early the GPSr took a bit to get a lock but once it confirmed enough satellites we found the co-ords good. A quick search and we spotted the cache which was heavily fogged up with condensation. The log is damp but we managed to sign as **FTF** it would be good if the log was put in a plastic zip bag with some moisture absorbers. TFTC.
