Geocache Description:


Welcome to the Monuments & Multis Series — M&M Series
.
The Island has numerous small monuments & plaques commemorating oft forgotten people, places & events that played a role in the history of the Island. Most such commemorative reminders, if noticed at all, are usually driven by without stopping or reading. This series hopes to highlight the Island’s past through a number of quick, 2-stage multi caches that require visiting & reading such plaques.

Built of Island and Wallace Sandstone, the Charlottetown railway station opened July 8,
19WW. At a time when both people and goods travelled extensively by train, the station was a
busy place indeed. Housing public facilities and administrative offices, this was the centre of
the railway on Prince Edward Island for over XX years. The building began as the
headquarters of the Prince Edward Island Railway and later became the main offices for the
P.E.I. division of the Canadian National Railway and Ferry Service. Arrivals and departures
took place on four sets of tracks located on the east side of the building. The building ceased
operation as a station with the closure of the railway in 19YY

Add "WW", "XX" and "YY" together to get "Z" and use “Z” in the following equation to obtain the nearby final cache coordinates:

N46 14.(Z + 92) W063 07.(Z - 66)
Checksum: N=31, W=18
