Geocache Description:

This is one of a series of micro/nano caches along the scenic route of the Cambrian Railway Line between Newtown and Machynellth.


At each cache there is a logbook with a letter on the back. By collecting all of the letters you are able to complete the puzzle for the bonus cache – The Cambrian Trail Bonus Cache. This cache is big enough for some small swaps and trackables.

The Railway Line is the first and (at time of placement) only line in the whole of the UK (apart from the Eurotunnel) to not have any signals along it. That means no semaphore signals, no lights, nothing. The signal boxes are no longer there and all of the trains along it are signalled with the aid of some technically minded people in a room full of blinking lights in Machynellth.

This cache is hidden in a layby on the road between Penial and Talerddig.

A HUGE congratulations to ccrevell for being the FTF on this cache. A massive effort put in on their part: Thank you for bearing with us newbies! We have taken on board your comments and completely agree with everything you have said. As a result we are going to move the cache tomorrow to a more suitable location. We will update coordinates then.

The bonus cache will be published soon! We are still awaiting permissions.
