This cache highlights the Museums at Lisle Station Park. This park hosts gatherings of the community after the parades that are held in downtown Lisle. It is also has its annual Depot Days in the late summer/early fall where the museums are open and highlight the buildings and activities from days of yore. My kids always enjoy the blacksmith demonstrations when we have attended events here (that and Santa Claus & Mrs. Claus).
As a resident of Lisle, I like to think that Lyle Lanley would be certain to try and convince Lisle that it needed a monorail in the event of a large windfall of cash. We probably wouldn't fall for it, but he would be sure to call it more of a Naperville idea.
At GZ you should find the CB&Q Railroad Waycar and a plaque with information about this railcar. You will need to find information on both of these to get the final coordinates.
The final stage is located at the following:
N 41 4A.BCD
W 88 04.EFG
A = Last number of the year that the Waycar rail car was brought to this site.
B = Take the last number on the side of the car and subtract the 2nd number on the car.
C = # of organizations that helped to bring the car to this site.
D = 3rd number on the side of the train car.
E = Take the last number on the side of the car and subtract 2 from that number.
F = 3rd digit in the year the Waycar was retired.
G = 4th digit in the year the Waycar was retired.
I hope you enjoy the area and the hide as much as I enjoy the following:
Lyle Lanley:
All right. I'll tell you what I'll do. I'll show you my idea. I give you the Springfield Monorail!
(everyone gasps)
I've sold monorails to Brockway, Ogdenville, and North Haverbrook, and, by gum, it put them on the map!
Well, sir, there's nothin' on earth like a genuine bona-fide electrified six-car monorail! What'd I say?
