Geocache Description:


There is no need to go near the tracks!

Port Hope railway station is one of the oldest Canadian passenger rail stations still in active use.  It opened as part of the Grand Trunk Railway in 1856.  It is now served by Via Rail trains running from Toronto to Kingston to Ottawa.  The station is not staffed, but has a heated waiting room, pay telephone, washrooms, free outdoor parking, and is wheelchair accessible. It is open for 60 minutes before and after scheduled stops.

There is a reason for the marque at the top of this description. This unique station has NO BARRIERS between the station or parking lots and the tracks. The cache is in a totally safe location within the parking lot and again there is no need to go near the tracks! 

thanks to Midrange for starting this series ...more to follow :)
