About This Item

Cucamonga Railroad Cacher - The Travel Bug Limited

As with all railroads, the Travel Bug Limited had a set itinerary and schedule. Unfortunately, the Travel Bug LImited got derailed in July 2005 in California, but has gotten back on track clear across the country in New York.  Yep, go figure that one out.  The Travel Bug Limited wants to take a ride on the scenic railroads anywhere in the United States. Some of the stops scheduled on the way include:

Yosemite Mountain Sugar Pine Railroad
California Western Skunk Train
Golden Spike National Historic Site
Mt. Rainier Scenic Railroad
Black Hills Central Railroad
Mt. Washington Cog Railway
Gettysburg Scenic Railway
Manitou & Pike's Peak Railway

The Travel Bug Limited is a round trip fare, starting in California and ending back in California after it gets to see these famous railways.

Our intrepid bug had quite a ride at the 'bonus' part of this cache; an interesting optical illusion. We also visited the Santa Paula depot and the new statue commemorating the motorcyclists who raced through town warning residents of the approaching flood from the 1928 collapse of the St. Francis Dam.

The geocacher who started this Bug is a long-time cyber-friend of Jim's, so this showing up not too far away was too good of an opportunity to pass up. We found the cache moderately-easily; very nice 🙂 The punched card for the Fillmore & Western is a nice touch, Gold Star! We go up north several times a year, so we'll probably be able to get this well on it's way once the weather turns nice for good.
