Geocache Description:

This cache is the second of a series of four caches on the former Royal National Park Line. It is hidden near the first shed next to the track.

This cache is approved by the NSW Environment and Heritage, until 30 June 2015. See http://www.environment.nsw.gov.au/ for more details.


The route of this group of caches brings you over the Royal National Park Line which was a railway from Loftus to the National Park Station between 1886 - 1991.

On Wednesday and Sunday, the Sydney Tram Museum currently runs an electric tram between Loftus and the old Royal National Park station. The trip goes from the museum over the Princes Highway past this railway crossing and two sheds and then to the old railway station platform. See http://www.sydneytramwaymuseum.com.au/ for more details on the tram museum.

When you are here, take notice of the absence of the name on the label on the side towards the railway line. Also you will see two sleepers with seven digits which are all the same numbers. Let's call these FGHIJKL now for. This information is needed for the fourth cache in this series.

Did you know that NSW has a geocaching association? Geocaching NSW aims to enhance and improve the activity of geocaching and holds regular events where geocachers meet to enjoy their common interests. Visit the association website here.
