About SideTracked Caches
This cache belongs to the SideTracked series. It is not designed to take you to a magical place with a breath taking view (but in this case, you can find plenty of nice things to look at nearby). It's a distraction for the weary traveller, but anyone else can go and find it too. More Information can be found at the SideTracked Website.
About Chesapeake Beach Station
The station was originally opened as a stop along the railway when Otto Mears sought to create a resort town at the Chesapeake Bay between Baltimore and Washington, D.C. Mears and his business associates established hotels, beaches, casinos and a boardwalk. On June 9, 1900, the first train arrived at the station. However, 35 years later, the Great Depression and the growing popularity of cars led to a decline in business. The last train left the station on April 15, 1935.
Nearby is the Chesapeake Beach Railway Museum which is open daily 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. April through October.
Note: Special visits as staffing allows / museum is accessible to the disabled / admission is always FREE.
About this cache
This geocache is hidden at the coordinates. You are looking for a container about the size of a small spice jar, hanging about 3 feet off the ground, in a holly bush. As is usual, you will need to use stealth, but this location provides its own, natural cover (sort of). Be careful opening the container; the log is inside another, smaller container that is inside the host. Hopefully you will have someone with you who can help you juggle all the parts while you sign the log.
Have fun and if you have time, visit the museum. They have some interesting exhibits AND a miniature train set that runs around a track.
