Geocache Description:

This cache is SirJ-Oz's sixth cache. A traditional that shouldn't be too hard.
It is the first of a (possible) series of placements which I've scoped out on my drive To And From Work (T.A.F.W).

TAFW#1: Auburn Station


Auburn station opened on 3 April 1882 as Auburn Road, and was renamed Auburn in the same year. The building is listed on the Victorian Heritage Register. The current two storey station building dates back to 1916, when the railway between Hawthorn and Camberwell was regraded. It features brick and stucco facades punctuated by arches.

  • Log book
  • Mini Mouse figurine
  • 5 Dubloons
  • and my signature pathtag for a FTF prize

Logging Etiquette: Geocache hiders sometimes go through a great deal of planning to place their caches. As a result, they'd like to hear your feedback on whether you liked or disliked any aspect of the hide, or if you feel that some cache maintenance is required. Single word, acronym, or emoticon logs may be easier when you have a lot of caches to log, but it doesn't tell the hider or other finders anything about your adventure (or lack thereof) in finding the cache. Please keep this in mind when entering your log.
