Geocache Description:

A small cache hiding in plain sight, so please replace Exactly as found or it will look out of place.

Park at Gladstone road reserve, safe and easy walk over the bridge, or park near the cache end and walk over to bridge.


If you arrive at the right time of day or night while you are searching a train might rumble over head as it did when I was placing this cache.

 

Remember to bring your own ink to sign the log.

 

The Sadliers Crossing Railway Bridge, opened in 1902, is important in demonstrating the evolution of the railway network in Queensland. This rail network, established in the 1860s, was vital for the development of the colony through opening land for closer settlement and freighting produce and resources to Queensland's ports. From the 1890s the preferred design of large metal rail bridges to cross major waterways underwent several changes, to withstand flooding and to meet increased load requirements.
