Another cache celebrating the former Balhannah to Mount Pleasant spur, which was opened in 1918 and closed in 1963. The section from Mount Torrens to Birdwood is now an extension of the Amy Gillett Bikeway, so worth revisiting with your bicycle on board.
At the listed coordinates is the the station sign. Go to the the waypoint and read the information about the Mount Torrens Heritage Trail, which surprisingly doesn't say much about the former rail service. Determine the letters A to S where
- A is the approximate length of the trail in km
- B to I are the two years mentioned in order of appearance (ignore decades)
- J to S are the digits of the phone number in the bottom right corner of the sign
The cache is located at: S34° DP.JRC E138° A(C-S).F(B+Q)(E+K+S)
Checksum S 22 E 25
I hope you enjoy your visit to historic Mount Torrens.
