Geocache Description:

You will explore 30th Street Station on this two stage multicache. You must bring your own pen to sign the log.

A small container is hidden near the train station. In order to find it, you will have to find its coordinates hidden in the station. There are four distinct groups of public pay telephones in the station. The coordinates are hidden on one of these phones. The hint gives the telephone number where the coordinates are hidden. Your search will be easier if you know what a comfort station is.

After you find the coordinates, exit the station on the 29th Street side for a short walk to the cache.

From the 30th Street Station web site:

30th Street Station, a National Register of Historic Places, is an eight-story concrete frame building containing approximately 562,000 gross square feet. Built in 1934, this stately landmark is the home of the corporate offices for Amtrak, the Station Market retail space, and the largest existing and second most active railway station in America. Located on Market Street between 29th and 30th Streets, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the site around the Station is an entirely elevated "bridge" type structure which includes Market, Arch, and 30th Street, and Schuylkill Avenue.

The overall building size is 700 feet long and 325 feet wide, covering almost two city blocks.
