Geocache Description:

From this place it’s perfect to follow the construction of the railroad past Currentarrow and the building of the new roadbridge.

The Bothnia Line is the biggest railway project of modern times in Sweden. It is a single-track railway being laid from the bridge over Ångermanälven, north of Kramfors airport, via Örnsköldsvik, Husum, Nordmaling, to Umeå.

This new railway will be 190 km long, with 140 bridges and 25 km of tunnels.

The Bothnia Line will link together a highly productive region, where a series of significant industrial locations are all situated along the Swedish coastline. This new link will mean efficient transport of freight and the halving of travelling times for passengers.

The Bothnia Line will be able to cope with speeds of up to 250 km/hour.
The cach is a small plastic box and it contains a logbook and some small tradingthings. It also contains some Bothnialine-pins which you can take one without leaving anything in return
