The cache is big enough to hold log and one small object like a Pathtag. BYOP.
Cache container has been replaced several times. Please replace the container in the same spot you found it in. Several catchers have moved it making the cache more difficult to find. If you park in the provided parking spots, you will be facing the cache.
Little Red Caboose
According to the Fountainvalley Chamber of Commerce web page, the caboose was originally purchased to become the Visitor’s Center/Chamber of Commerce. It was placed in its current location at Mayor’s Park in Fountain. State laws require that visitors centers and Chamber of Commerce facilities have to be handicap-accessible; therefore, plans to use it for its original purpose had to be scrapped. The little park with its fountain and bench invites visitors to stop and marvel at this piece of history. And the city keeps adding things to the park improving it.
We are dedicating this cache to a fellow cacher, RockyMtnFlo, who loves trains.

Found this many years ago as part of a team, but couldn’t find it today. Feeling really stupid since it was found just a few weeks ago. :(

After attending the nearby event, pursued several caches on the way home. These types of hides are usually quite challenging but geosense led to a quick find today. Nice hide. SL. TFTC
