The mission of this Travel Bug is to move 400 feet from its present location to approximately where the railroad tracks are now. This move will occur in 2006. (Schedule is subject to change.)
You can find this Travel Bug at N38 35.041 W121 30.060.
This is Sacramento's Main Railroad Depot Station Building. It is a Southern Pacific Railroad Depot. Future transportation and city revitalization plans all include protecting this precious historic and still useful facility.
In the year 2006, it will be jacked up and moved as one unit, 400 feet north from its current position. It will take approximately 3 weeks for it to move the 400 feet. That is this travel bug's mission.
If you find this travel bug you can do one of two things:
1. If you are able to lift it and move it to another cache site, make sure you don't crush the cache you are putting it in.
2. If you can't lift it, find the travel bug dog tag near coordinates N38 35.041 W121 30.060. It is hidden but not hard to find. (Hint: Gur nve pbaqvgvbare gb gur yrsg bs gurfr pbbeqvangrf.)
Please do not take the travel bug dog tag. Log your travel bug find at www.geocaching.com and do a "Grab it from current holder". Then, just keep the giant travel bug in your name until the next person grabs it from you.
Please don't do a virtual drop into a cache site. We want the milage to stay at 0 until it moves. By doing the grab, you will get credit for finding this travel bug. Have fun!
NOTE: Another, travel bug, "The Earth, A Travel Bug" (TBD702) is the Earth's biggest Travel Bug.

Yikes this TB is HEAVY!!! Managed to fit it into my CSI car, it's a really tight fit. But the TB dog tag is missing. Can't 'officially' take it off of Li'l Devil's hands. TB dog tag carrier is home with me...47Dad47, let me know what you want me to do. 🤕

Just as a piece of Trivia, if anyone remembers the "John Larroquette Show" on NBC a few years ago, this travel bug was actually the exterior shot for the "Crossroads bus station" which was the setting of the show.
Like I said... Just a piece of trivia.

Came in on the train. Jeo was picking me up but he hadn't arrived yet so I came over to search for this TB again. Found it this time 😛
Jeo showed up a few minutes later and we tried to load the TB in his truck but it just wouldn't fit 🤕 so we left it there. I hope the next person has a bigger truck.
