The cache is a nano that is placed in a busy shopping centre so
stealth is very important. I will change the size as soon as I see
that the cache will last. The clue gives it away, so that you do
not attract to much attention.
The numbers 4-8-2 refers to the wheels arrangement and is based on
the Whyte notation for classifying steam locomotives. It was
devised by Frederick Methyan Whyte and was introduced early in the
20th century. The system was based on an editorial in American
Engineer & Railroad Journal(Editorial December 1900) and it
counts the number of leading wheels, then the number of driving
wheels, and finally the number of trailing wheels, with the groups
of numbers being separated by dashes. Other classification schemes,
like the UIC classification and the French system for steam
locomotives, count axles rather than wheels.
