Looks like another unloved cache
 
22-Aug-08
Has been offline for too long.

Do you need any help getting this one up and running again? It's been offline for a while.

I hadn't checked the status of this cache but as i was passing through thought I would have a go as the last time I tried the train had just come in. Not too many people about this time so I was able to do a good search. Clockwise and anticlockwise just in case I had missed something. 3 times I tried but decided my arms were not long enough. Then I get home and discover it disabled! Oh well....next time.

We checked this cache last night and are sad to report it has either been muggled or has crept beyond reach.

We will replace this one soon.

Our first DNF for the day...very disappointing. Then to note that this has not been found for over 1/2 a year with many DNF's logged and no comment from owner? Please maintain or archive this cache. Three of us with torches and fine combs poured over every inch of GZ and got almost under it and there is nothing here.
 
29-Apr-07
As indicated by Backpaquer this one is clearly not there. If we I had had a keholder and log in the car I would have left it there as a replacement. Perhaps the next cacher can do so?
 
29-Apr-07
After some recent DNFs we have disabled this cache until a replacement can be positioned.

Tried this one twice in the evening after working in Pakenham during the day. The first time a train had just arrived (difficulty rating 5 at this time) and there were people everywhere so I decided to return later, next time all was looking very quiet except for one youth on a bicycle. Beauty I thought, he'll pass through quickly but no he headed straight for the fixture I also had my eye on and there he stopped. I'll return another day!
 
10-Apr-07
Had a fair idea where this may be after reading a few other logs, however had a really good hunt without success....
 
25-Feb-07
Waited for all the locals to go away before looking. Had a good look but with no success. Sad

Number 2 of 6 of the RDMC series.
Thanks Team Diesel.

There were three kids playing near by but they soon moved on and the cache was found.
Thanks Team Diesel.

Way too many muggles to search for this one today.
Unfortunately my PDA sh.t itself here so I had to continue the day with no cache instructions.

Found at 16:15 hours in the company of Romax. Good spot for a hide Team Diesel.

Found by edmil & maddie. This was our second attempt at this one. We had to give up last time as there were muggles galore. But got it this time. Thanks for the cache
 
04-Feb-06
Had tried for this once before but was unable to nab as there were muggles all over the place.
Came back today and knew exactly where to look and found with no issues.
Thanks.

Found on 30/10/05 @ 0632 AEDT. The 2nd of 58 caches for the day with Facitman for the Spring Caching Carnival.

After a DNF not far away, we were hoping for a straight forward find that didn't spin us around too much. this one didn't disappoint Cool.

Cheers Team Diesel

No 2 of 58

Arrived at GZ and found cache after a short search, the area was conveniently quiet as most sensible people were still in bed.

Rhinogeo soon had the cache in hand.

Thanks Team_Diesel

First of my selection of RDMC caches for this morning before heading back into town (such a long, long way away).
The more of these I do the more I am enjoying them.
Took nothing, left nothing.
Thanks Team_Diesel.

What a great day for caching today.Smile Here I am into a full day of caching with Dak from dak's Emu Mob. We hope to get well over the 2 dozen done todayCool We knew where the cache would be as soon as we arrived at GZ. Dak scored the prize and could be forgiven for 'laying down on the job' for this one.Wink

The 18th of 24 finds today in company with barcoder on our assault on the Far East. I thought I knew where it had to be--it was only a matter of finding exactly where. I covered almost all possibilities before laying hands on it at 1625. TNLNSL. Thanks to Team Diesel for the cache.
 
31-Mar-05
Dang! Muggles. I sat down next to them to see if I could entice them away, but to no avail. They were obviously more bored than I was.
I took off to another RDMC not far away and returned about 30 minutes later.
They were still sitting there.
I checked and no they're not statues.
So, I've missed this one that I'll have to put on my backlist for the time being.
 
23-Mar-05
Another nice easy find in the most likely of spots. Signed the log. Thanks for the cache.
 
12-Mar-05
While going after the series of 12 RDMC's with Loonster today we came by here three times over several hours. Too many muggles. Will have to try a night mission or at least not on a weekend Wink Will be back.
 
12-Mar-05
Found at 11:35pm. Fiftyfifth cache of 56 on our quest to claim the Most Cache Finds in Australia in One Day.

We thought this would be our last cache of the night with only 35 minutes left until midnight.

We had thoroughly checked out 1 item before deciding we didn't have a clue "H" decrypted the clue. It didn't make sense until inspiration struck and after a short search. This was an inspired use of the micro and a great hiding spot. Well hidden Smile. A reasonable quick find meant we had a chance at 1 more some distance away. Here goes...

Thanks Team Diesel from D,S & H B-A.

Time Elapsed since First Cache - 16 Hours 55 Minutes.

Found easily. Lots of Muggles, but patience always wins hey! Great use of a micro cache, especially one of this typeWink. And it was great fun at GZ too WinkWink Our Thanks to team Diesel.
 
27-Feb-05
Found by Mary & David at 1225. Took quite a while as there were kids everywhere at GZ at first. We literally stood our ground though, and they soon departed. Had a great time sitting in the sun and searching. Our thanks once more to Team Diesel.
 
26-Feb-05
Due to the dodgy looking character loitering around the transport hub, who followed us into GZ [:(!] we will return.
 
19-Feb-05
Nice easy find,but as i had the cache in hand 3 young muggles turned up for a play, had to leave and come back later to replace cache. sorry to anyone who had a could not find between 17:30 and 18:00
 
17-Feb-05
Found by Head Chef on his way back from Traralgon for work, nice hidding spot. Had to wait for the muggles to clear each time the train arrives. Thanks Team Diesel

ANother rapid deployment cache find for the Mr.Coffee and the coffee Clan, 198th cache and counting. A special thanks to team crackers for their inspiration via phone to carry onWink
Regards Mr.Coffee and the Clan.
 
14-Feb-05
Our third lunch time cache and fifth for the series. We did not attempt this one before work because of its close proximity to the train staion and the amount of muggles at that time of day. No one around at the time of our assault. Took a little while looking around but eventually the cache was found. Our fifth first to find in this series. Thanks Team Diesel.

Found at 7.15..
A wonderful hide, never expected it to be where it was, but knew it as soon as I hit GZ. Some muggles were around. So I kneeled down and played the tie shoe laces, and turned th thing around at the same time.. Thanks from M.B and L.B..
