Geocache Description:


Rosenberg is a railroad town.  The city came into being when Richmond, the county seat, refused to give right-of-way to the Gulf Colorado and Santa Fe Railway.  In 1880 the railroad built three miles to the west of the Richmond area and established a station

 

 The town was named in honor of Henry Rosenberg, a Swiss immigrant, who was president of the Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe Railway Company from 1874 to 1877.  For over a century, Rosenberg has continued to be a railway crossroads… so busy in fact that the last traditional manned interlocking tower in Texas operated until 2004.  The tower is located at the Rosenberg Railroad Museum just north of the downtown shopping district.

 

This cache is a simple one… but ground zero has quite a few "likely spots" to hide a container.  All I can say is that you will need to find this one by touch… I don't think it will be possible for you to see it.  

 

Okay, all aboard for the Rosenberg Cache Express!!!
