Geocache Description:

This is my first placed Cache in Honor of my Dad, who so loved trains. He was a founding member of the Indian Head Lines Model Railroad club in Milwaukee Wisconsin, thus the name of the Cache. Below is the club logo, which he help to design.


My Dad's love of trains was passed on to me as a young girl, never missing an opportunity to see trains of all kinds. He (and I) favored the old steam trains and loved to ride them whenever we could. We spent hours in the basement working on train layouts and train cars for his club.

When my daughters were young he passed on his love of trains to them, taking them on train rides whenever we were home to visit. Sadly he passed away before my son was born and didn't get to share this hobby with him. But I have kept his stories alive and shared pictures of our adventures aboard trains together. We still have his train layout for under the Christmas tree and the cars he loved best.

You are looking for a small plastic container with Log and Pencil. Please keep the Memorial Card with the Cache, but feel free to grab the tracking bug and send it on it's journey.

Perhaps when you find this Cache, you will pause and listen for the train, a sound that to this day reminds me of my Dad. Such a peaceful sound in the distance....enjoy and peace!
