strycek skrblik: Really like this place, but after reconstruction - it is not same. I would need to change D/T to let it live longer. I will try to visit this place in the future and make new - easier one.

Geocache Description:

The hunt is at your own risk. If you note warnings above, there should be no problem in finding the cache. Special equipment is not needed. ...But if you do not observe the warning above, there might be some consequences...

Viaduct over the road-Ketra Glubczyce carries a lot of history. It starts writing before 1909, when it was first possible to arrive here by train from Opava. Traffic from Pilszcz to Bavorov was ensured by Royal Prussian Railway Administration. There was both passenger (before the 2nd World War 6x daily there and back on the 2nd and 3rd travelclass) and freight transport.

In 1930, from Opava to Berlin took it less than 13 hours. Departure from the station Opava-Západ was in 18.15 in the evening and the train arrived in Berlin at the Silesian station the next morning at 6.59. In today's 10 hours, it must be acknowledged that it was really fast.

After liberation of Opava by the Red Army (April 21- 22, 1945) has not been traffic on the line from Opava to Pilszcz restored. The railway from Pilszcz to Bavorov was restored in the 50th past century (PKP railway No. 325) and was maintained until the late 70 years. The railway was finally closed in 1991-1992. Last train on this track was a memorial train, which pulled out in 1996 from Rybnik. Now its fate is similar to other lines towards the Czech border – traffic closed down, remains of the railway abandoned.

Because of that we get a chance to visit interesting viaduct near the village of Nowa Cerekwia without being disturbed by trains. A condition for getting this cache, are the warning above! I hope that you will like the cache and it is going to stay for a long time at that place. Successful hunt!

Pictures are not here, in text, on purpose. If you want to be surprised, do not seek where are you going and what will be there. It is worth it. For the others, pictures you can find here: on Picasa web. But if you make some on your trip, u can put them into the log.

Odlov keše je na vlastní nebezpecí. Pokud dodržíte výše zmínené podmínky, pak by nemel být problém a keš zvládnete levou zadní. Není treba žádné speciální vybavení. Avšak pozor na to, pokud je nedodržíte...

Viadukt nad silnicí Ketr-Hlubcice nese mnoho historie. Ta se zacíná psát pred rokem 1909, kdy bylo poprvé možno dojet až zde vlakem z Opavy. Provoz z Plšte do Bavorova byl zajištován Správou královských pruských drah a byla zajištována jak osobní (pred 2. svetovou válkou 6x denne tam a zpet ve 2. a 3. cestovní tríde) tak nákladní doprava.

Pro zajímavost, je možné uvést zpusob cestování, napr. v roce 1930, z Opavy do Berlína za necelých 13 hodin. Odjezd z nádraží Opava západ vecer v 18.15 a príjezd do Berlína na Slezské nádraží príští den ráno v 6.59. V tom jsou zapoctena pulhodinová cekání na prípoj v Bavorove a Kaderíne. Pri dnešních necelých 10 hodinách, je nutno uznat, že je to na danou dobu úctyhodná rychlost.

Po osvobození Opavy Rudou armádou 21.-22.4.1945 již nebyl provoz na trati z Opavy do Plšte obnoven. Trat z Plšte do Bavorova však byla obnovena v 50. letech minulého století (trat PKP c. 325) a byla udržována až do konce 70. let. Definitivne byla trat uzavrena v letech 1991-1992. Poslední jízdou na této trati byl památecní vlak, který vyjel v roce 1996 z Rybnika. Nyní je její osud podobný ostatním tratím smerem k ceským hranicím - provoz zastaven a zbytky trati ponechány svému osudu.

Díky tomu se nám naskýtá možnost navštívit zajímavý viadukt u vesnice Nowa Cerekwia, aniž bychom byli obtežováni vlaky. Podmínkou pro odlov této keše, jsou výše zmínená varování! Doufám, že se keš bude líbit a dlouhou dobu vydrží na svém míste. Lovu zdar.

Obrázky zde v listingu nejsou schválne. Pokud se chcete nechat prekvapit, nedívejte se kam jedete a co tam bude. Urcite to stojí za to. Pro ty ostatní - fotogalerii naleznete zde: na webu Picasa. Pokud však pri lovu nejaké fotky vyfotíte, do logu je pripojte, at ti zvedaví ví, do ceho jdou :o)
