Geocache Description:


The beloved and historic Clamshell Railroad transported people, oysters, cranberries and more up and down the Long Beach Peninsula before there were paved roads! Known as the train that ran by the tide table, not by the time table, retrace the whistle stops and learn about the early days of transportation out here at the "end of the road".

The Klipsan stop was likely used both for transporting of local products -- cranberries and oysters -- as well as residents and summer visitors who had homes and vacation cottages in the area.
