Geocache Description:

A cache with a Christmas theme that requires some research before you leave home. It is a cache for all year round. The cache is NOT at the listed co-ordinates which is a nearby railway station.

The answers to the following questions are all numbers. They need to be reduced to a single digit by adding. For example, if the answer is 1827, add each of the digits together, 1+8+2+7 = 18. If the result is still 2 or more digits, repeat the process until you are left with a single digit. In this example 1+8=9, so the answer is 9.
