THE END OF THE LINE (Bucks) Multi-Cache

This cache has been archived.

Simply Paul: I was going to replace this at the weekend, but...

"Sorry, your posting rights have been temporarily suspended. The suspension is due to end on Feb 18 2009, 11:48 PM."

Due to some 'extreme moderation' here: http://forums.groundspeak.com/GC/index.php?showtopic=205962 I no longer feel I'm the right person to be looking after this cache; my goals and values seem at odds with Groundspeak's -the owners of Geocaching.com- a successful web business which exists wholly on the good will of its users. My good will just dried up.

Rather than maintain it, I'm archiving it, and will remove the damp remains when I next pass.

THE END OF THE LINE (Bucks)

Simply Paul and the cache, at the End of the Line.

Located up a little lane between the villages of Grendon Underwood and Quainton in Bucks is an overgrown disused railway line. It's a remote and tranquil spot, which is probably why an organisation called the 'Birch, Bottoms & Lovitt Pony Club' (a group with no interest in horses, as seen on Eurotrash!) held their 2003 summer junket here. Just don't ask how I happen to know this!

Start your adventure at N51° 52.661 / W000° 58.173. At this initial location (with limited parking) you'll find yourself under some lines. Needless to say, while you're here you shouldn't try to interfere with them or this structure in any way. Above your head are two signs with numbers which I've replaced with letters in brackets. They look like:

The name of a big company, PLC.
0800 (A)0 (A)0 (B)(C)
(A)YH(D)(E)

The Cache is located at:
N51° 53.EA(B-D) / W000° 58.C(A+D)(B-E)

There are several ways get on the right track from here, but the proper footpath access is just beyond the road bridge you should be close to. While safely reliving fond memories of 'Stand By Me', keep your eyes open for all the wildlife in this area. Who knows, maybe you'll catch sight of a fine young filly out for a trot...

Happy hunting!

While you're in the area, I suggest you try Dan & Pid's excellent Misty Water Coloured Memories or Brian's Warren - A Quainton ramble by The Hornet. They're both only a short drive away.
