About the station

Edwardstown railway station was opened in 1913.

Edwardstown railway station once had a goods yard, where SteamRanger restored its centenary carriages when it was received from the State Transport Authority. It is of an island platform construction, with pedestrian access at the northern and southern ends and the railway tracks on either side to the east and west. The station is unattended and there are no facilities, aside from a shelter shed and public address system. The Edwardstown branch of the Freemasons is responsible for maintaining the station's landscaping.

Electric trains servicing the Seaford and Flinders railway lines go through here. This railway station, along with many others on this train line, has recently undergone a facelift, featuring a new shelter.

About the cache

I have been wanting to hide a cache here ever since the "Edwardstown" cache, my first ever official find, was archived. It wasn't a SideTracked cache, but it could have been! I'd love to see the SideTracked series gain... track-tion 😉... in South Australia, so I'm doing my bit!
