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. It's a distraction for the weary traveller, but anyone else can go and find it too. More Information can be found on the SideTracked Series website at www.sidetrackedseries.info https://www.sidetrackedseries.info

Soon after the founding of Nampa, a wood frame railway station was opened in 1887 at the connection between the Oregon Short Line Railroad and the Idaho Central Railway. The station quickly became insufficient to manage Nampa's passenger and freight traffic, and in 1902 a new station was planned.

The Nampa Depot opened in 1903, and it operated as a station until 1927 when a new depot was constructed. The 1903 depot was converted to office space for railroad employees in 1927, and it became the Nampa headquarters for the Canyon County Historical Society in 1973.

The above was taken from Wikipedia.

Please bring tweezers and pen.
