The cache is located in a place where the former London and North Western Railway (LNWR) line used to run through Harborough, although it may be hard to believe today. This was the first railway line to reach Harborough but was closed in 1966. The line originally ran from Rugby to Market Harborough. You'll need your own pen to sign the log and I'd recommend some tweezers.

You can check your answers for this puzzle on GeoChecker.com.
