This is a NANO placed at Telford Cetral Railway Station. Whilst its a multi cache, its designed to be a quick cache and dash for people with 10 minutes to kill whilst waiting for their train. Alternatively, you can park at the Euston Way and have a nice walk over this station. Both Stages are in safe locations (Platform 1 and up on the huge foot bridge) - there is no need to go anywhere near the train tracks or road - please use common sense.
Telford Central railway station serves the new town of Telford, England. It is situated close to the town centre, the main commercial district of the town. It is located on the Wolverhampton to Shrewsbury Line and is operated by Central Trains.The new station was equipped with full-length platforms to accommodate inter-city trains, and a large car park, which took advantage of the station's location next to the M54 motorway to provide a Park and Ride facility. The £700,000 cost was jointly funded by British Rail, the Telford Development Corporation and Shropshire County Council.
There are lots of muggles at this loaction - so the fun of this NANO is using stealth to get the cache without being spotted - I used the old "tieing my shoe laces trick" when I planted it, during busy commuter hours.
STAGE 1
Find the plaque on Platform 1 of the train station using the main co-ords: What year was the station opened by The Rt. Hon. Lord Murray? = ABCD
STAGE 2

Bonus points awarded to those who post a photo of themselves holding the nano... Careful not to drop it !!
