Took this out as it has gone.

I'm not saying it's not here. I just wasn't able to locate it. I did conduct a bit of a search on suitable objects, but came up empty-handed. Lots of the stuff around here looks quite new, so perhaps the cache went missing during an upgrade?

Sorry didn’t find it either. Looks like the crossing has been rebuilt. Alas not even a train while I was there.
 
05-Dec-18
I think this area has been rebuilt and the cache is gone

This one eluded me. I checked back through previous logs and came across a picture. The area looks all new. The boom gates are all shiny and the guard rail in the picture is no longer there. Maybe needs to be checked on or my eyes need checking. Hahaha

We are heading from Brisbane to Bright in Victoria, caching as we go, wherever it is safe to pull up with the caravan. We left Brisbane on 3rd Jan and don't have to be in Bright til the end of the month. Today's drive takes us from our camp at Burning Mountain to Musswellbrook.

We parked the van and went for a drive around town without it. Last one in Aberdeen, no train, but we have all the cached. Thanks Rock_Dok

Visiting from Adelaide to this lovely part of the state, my Muggle mate and I grabbed this one first Smile My mate being a Railfan, but sadly a Muggle, was happy for me to grab two of these Coal-Train Related hides with what time we had. A quick find was made and the log was signed at 07:54 on Thu 28 Sept 2017. All is good and dry within the cache [^] TFTC Rock_Dok Smile

Any last traces of day had completely gone by now, so we both had torches and were watching our step. Luckily it was another easy one.

Thanks Smile

We pulled off the main road, parked and walked back to the railway crossing. Thankfully these Coalies caches were proving to be easy, since night had arrived. Thanks

A newbie to Geocaching. I Remember hearing of it some years ago and it sounded fun but i never looked into it. Now after seeing the enjoyment my minions aged 6 & 5 get from Pokemon hunting and wanting to start on the painted rocks left in park for other kids to find craze i decided to look up this geocache thing. To my absolute surprise its still a thing and there are plenty to find locally so lets get started! Today is my first day. And out with Sister Geocacher Gibberish101.

Staying for a few days in Upper Hunter valley, and after some wine tasting it was time for some geocaching in the area. Aberdeen was close to our b&b, so that was the logic choice for the day.

The second of the Coalies cache! Slowly I worked my way through the Aberdeen caches.

Thanks for the cache.
