With some help from new Geocaching friends, Misfit Train wants to travle as far and as fast as he can.Please help Misfit Train by moving him in any direction as fast and as often as possible. He doesn't have to move far each time, as long as he moves often.

Discovered It 9/16/2023 MiriCach discovered it   Visit Log

TL;DR: We don't have the trackable (and feel sorry for you if it means it is still missing), but stumbled upon its discovery code.

The story: I discovered this trackable/coin when I cracked the cache "Msportis Coinlihaus der 2." and then was able to reverse-engineer some Coins/TBs of the owner Msporti as well. By pure chance / luck while testing out possibilities for this I also came across this TB/coin. We hope that it's okay that we discover it, if not, feel free to delete this log. TFTC/TFTT 😉

Nachdem ich jetzt mal meine Listen und Fotos von Events und Cachetagen zusammen gepackt und geordnet habe, entdeckte ich noch den einen oder anderen nicht discoverten TB/Coin. Dies hol ich hiermit dann nach.

Weiterhin gute Reise. Vielen Dank an alle Owner und Transporteure für's Zeigen und Reisen lassen!

Grab It (Not from a Cache) 10/27/2003 CacheCows grabbed it   Visit Log

Well, after a great run of almost 12,000 miles (not including his run in Europe that wasn''''t logged), Misfit Train is no more. Dispite his goal of traveling as often as possible, he was placed in a hard to visit cache. After no hits on this cache for almost 3 months, its first visitor found the cache missing. The cache owner apparently expected this possibility as he took the forsight to install a backup cache. Too bad Misfit Train had to end his run at a station so isolated and all alone. Thanks to everyone that participated in the fun of moving Misfit around, and my spologies to his fans that hve been watching him for so long. Now its off to the graveyard... :(
