The Old Pump house Carrington, New South Wales, Australia
By Team-Tonka on 21-May-15. Waypoint GC5VYDF

After reading Newluks6 log of Sept 1018, it appears that this cache is no longer here.
Could the CO complete maintenance at this good location.

This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.

Time to archive this one and create something new

I don’t think the cache is here anymore. There is a bee monitoring box but no successful finds for a while makes me think this one is gone.

Tried to find this one then looked at previous log and noticed it was MIA. Magpie

Looks like lots of activity around here at the moment with gardening and a bee monitoring box right at the coordinates. Thanks for bringing me over here for a bike ride tho

DNF with 63Roos and Gum62

Found this yesterday but unfortunately we had to remove it as the gardeners were putting mulch there. They were highly suspicious of the container and wouldn't touch it. Had reported it to their supervisor and they were making plans for its removal. So we took it with us. Have emailed the owner.

30 m away, but big cache

Awesome big one

Quick find with a good hint. We found this cache only 25 metres from co ords. I was expecting a long hint further afield from previous logs but not too far. Tftc.

Found 105m out from co ordinance..

Far off the coordinates but still a good cache

Cannot get into sight atm, it's fully fenced off and being worked on, perhaps someone should check the cache hasn't been discovered by muggles and disposed of!

All trackables taken and cache moved about 20m from coordinates. Not good. Placed back where we found it so have a good look about 20 meters away TFTC

did it with Djant some time ago

Another no find

Found with Mum and Dad. (Gazkersh and littlemissleft) TFTC

Found with littlemissleft and littlemisslonglegs

Found after a search about 10m away from coords
But yay it’s a ammo can in great condition
Was found out in the open so it’s now covered again

Thanks for the cache

Found with Beary_Unicorns and Miss Unicorns

Found with Banj Ward TFTC

Found with Gazkersh and littlemisslonglegs. Fun search and even more exciting find. Thanks so much for placing this cache! Fav point from me

I was hoping to find this cache as I have a trackable that I need to drop. But all I found today were old empty wine bottles.

Was in the area tonight so after looking at the map found this cache I had not yet found.
After a short search in the dark using the light on the phone and hiding it from passing cars the cache was in hand. The log was signed and I took a travel bug to move along.
Thanks for placing this cache

Great find! Loved this cache

needed to find a larger cache so i could drop some tb's from Canada. the first one is in honour of my daughter's wedding today with her auzzie beau. they will be living in Canada, so hopefully the tb will find its way home again. dropped two other tb's that need to go to NZ and Aus. cache in great shape, but about 6 or 7 m from GZ. used the clue and made the find TFTC.

Finally tracked down a wonderful ammo can, but unfortunately there were NO TB’s inside, even though 4 were listed! Not to worry, we left one for the next finder. A fascinating old pump house and amazing old Moreton Bay fig trees too. SL at 4.30pm Left: USA Flag tag TB #5281 TFTCTeam-Tonka

Thought it was the sprinkler system and started screwing, looks just like a Geocache. But if that's not it, we couldn't find it.

On a sunny autumn afternoon despite the mozzies we enjoyed looking for the cache and looking at the cruise ship. Once we widen our search it was easily found.

TFTC

Fangsoki and Pprime (P') and I were on a road trip for Easter to the Mega Event and had a list of caches that we wanted to get while we were away.

There were no muggles around so there was no interruptions to our searching.

We all started searching around GZ without any lock. We looked at the listing and saw we were looking for Regular container.

Pprime then widened the search area and soon spotted the cache.

Heading to OzGeoMuster Mega, with Fangsoki and Crew153 in the mighty Suzee. Day two, and we've made it to Newcastle. Another old building cache (we love them). For some reason we all wanted a different tree to the one the cache was hidden with, but we soon widened the search and a quick find was then made. A great spot.

Thanks for placing this cache, Team-Tonka. Found in good condition.
*{Overall find #5660}*

Pprime, Crew 153, and I pulled up for this one next.

Oh. History. I hate history.. said no Fangsoki ever.

I admit to examining said "house" while the others searched. We all searched in the wrong places until Pprime announced he head found it. Well that embarrassingly took a long time to find.

We signed the log and re-hid the cache as found. Thanks for showing us the House and the good information in the listing. TFTC Team-Tonka

well it wasn't actually a DNf as we found the cache but could not get it open. The lid was wedged shut with the zip lock bag hanging out . We did enjoy the area though looking at the tankers nearby and looking at the old pump house, so don't mind coming back. Thanks for the cache Frisky puppet

Nice bunch of stuff in the cache but down to 1 TB left. I picked one up and will be bringing it back to the USA and place it there.

Thanks for the cache. Greetings from the Czech republic.

found this one with my Family account quite some time ago CO gave permission for me to log it with my new personal account
TFTC

Found during our stay in beautiful Australia. Thank you. Greetings from Czech republic.

Good find, took a good pull to open

Took a little finding with kids in toe. TFTC

Took a while but found after being eaten alive by mosquitoes.

Didn't find it the first time around but, with some clues from previous logs, homed in on it this time! And, yes, the coordinates are a little off according to my iPhone and I should have expanded my search last time.

Thanks for the cache, Team-Tonka, took nothing, left nothing and signed the log.

Nice easy find and a good spot for a bit of history.

GPS played up on this one but after a little search we found it . TFTC. Jayne and Glenn.

Poor house

found in the dark after a bit of tripping around

Good one to find nice old building

found with btm and gm10

found with btm and u_c found a good 10 meters from coords

Found with u_c and gm10 the 4 tb's surposed to be in it are not and there is a tb stamped in the logbook

Fun find. Geocache full of stuff but none of the four listed trackables were present.

No pen in cache

Oh dear, not having much geoluck today. Three Carrington caches in the area but only found one. I did discover what looked to be the camouflage that might have been hiding the cache. I shall have to keep watch to see if there are more skilled sleuths than me, and make another trip some other day.

Woooo!

Found it but also had trouble and could not open the box. 2nd time lucky for me on th s cache. Glad to find it this time

After grabbing a nearby FTF we came to take a look at this one. It is such a grand old building and looks magnificent of a night. It it caches at places like this that we really enjoy. Cache was quickly located, the lid was hard to opened but managed to pull it fine. As we got back to the car a drone flew out of nowhere and just hovered high above us. I think we may have been under some sort of surveillance. Quite a strange experience. TFTC.

Found this while having a rid on my bike, love the container I have not seen one of these in some time.
The lid was named on pretty tight though and I could not remove it.
Interesting place though.
TFTC

Found it with geoson while visiting. Thanks Team-Tonka

Great find but couldn't open box

Quick easy find. Had trouble opening the cache, so I'll have to return soon. Think the lid might be jammed. TFTC!!! Cool spot. #994

Easy find on a damp day. What a great old building, it will be great to see it once it has its renovation. TFTC

Found with BillHill531, on one of our monday morning walks. TFTC

Found on our Monday morning walk with muggle friend. Nice clue. TFTC

Really great cache

Yeahhh Gotcha together with our aussi friend and my better half we took a walk after a goooood mexican Lunch and found this cool place. TFTC

Great Cache! Left a TB from the Ukraine (picked up in England)

Left a bunny and took the yo-yo with a smile tftc

Such a beautiful spot. Worth the 3 mozzie bites!

8:25am 19/11 - in the area for a relative's milestone in the local ParkRun. While they were off doing that, tadpoles and I came looking for a cache. I'd spied this one before leaving Canberra as I have a number of bugs I wanted to drop off in Newcastle this weekend.

A quick find in a shady spot. Who doesn't love an ammo box? A LOT of swaps inside so a little hard to track down the bugs already here - picked up one in a bag that turned out to be two. Dropped off three.

The log book bag is ripped so replaced that with a new one that seals.

Quick drive by. Cache in goid condition. Tftc

Nice quick and easy find. Surprised it hasn't been muggled.

Nice easy find and heaps of goodies. I left 1 TB and took 3. all ok here TFTC

Found with trillian on a nice day for it. Lid was on a little tight, took both of us to open it.

Found with Minyakano. Nice morning for geocaching. Thanks.

A quick find to retrieve a TB and drop another off.

Tb drop

An after dinner detour to drop off a Team-Tonka TB in one of their caches.

I dropped off EIGHT!!!

TFTC.

What a cool building. Looks like something from a movie set. Love the ammo container as well. TFTC

Great find!! Loads of swaps!
TFTC

Easy to find, lid hard to get off

A great piece of history. It's good to see such a large cache container hidden right under our noses in an urban area. TFTC Team-Tonka

Another quality team tonka cache. Tftc. Favourite point from me. Tftc.

Quick find.
I am surprised it hasn't been muggled.
It looks like a resting place for some wino's , lots of empty wine bottles laying under the tree.

My son loved this one. Tftc

Interesting spot. TFTC

easy find, TFTC, hint really helps

Great cache. No sign of the trackable.

Wow!!! Awesome find!
Very exciting!!

Found together with the Pebbles, Fred and Uncle Grog TFTC Team-Tonka.

Found together with Dino, Fred and Uncle Grog TFTC Team-Tonka.

A quick fun ride with the new T.S to get to this hidden nice place together with Uncle Grog, Dino and Pebbles. Very pretty building and nice big container. Some close by wine buttles suggest some risk for survival.
Left two Travelers coming from Europe.

We arrived by cruise ship! We that was the novelty! The QE was docked nearby and we were returning from being in town. I really liked the building and it is wonderful that there is a cache here to give it added meaning! Thanks....

Nice find! I lived in carrington for a while and didn't even know this was here

TFTC Team tonka

This one has been on our list for a while, we never seemed to be nearby.... dropped in today, Samuel made the find pretty quickly, at a GZ littered with wine bottles.... TFTC

Nice ammo can
