Hello and Welcome to the Ticket To Ride series. The inspiration to place these gecoaches, along my local railway line, came from interest in trains. I took a lot of inspiration from the Motorway Mayhem caches. The original Ticket To Ride cache was a 35mm film canister placed about 30 feet from Gwersylt train station. It proved popular and I soon expanded the series to include Caergwrle and Cefn-Y-Bydd stations.
Each cache is placed on or near the station it takes it's name from. 35mm film canisters are normally used, each contains a log book and a small pencil. Please take care when caching at these locations, you should never go down onto the track. NON of the caches require you to do this. And watch out for muggles.
It would be nice for me if other people took an interest in this series and helped me expand it further afield. Anyone can place a cache under the Ticket To Ride name. If you would like to take part contact me here.
A list and location of all the Ticket To Ride caches can be found here.
Heswall
This cache is a small plastic contaier containing a log book two pencils, and two ready made micro caches. It is placed not far from Heswall train station on the Wirral. As well as being able to park in the station car park, Arriva trains Wales operate an hourly service each way to Wrexham and Bidston.
Like most of the stations on the line it only has two platforms with very basic facilities. Please be carefull when replacing the cache.
This cache is part of the Ticket To Ride North series. To be able to reach the multi cache at Bidston you must find this cache, and the cache at Neston
Good luck and happy caching
