Sidetraked Sodor
Sodor is located somewhere in
between Barrow and the Isle of Man.Thankfully for you the cache isn't there, it is somewhere
near the given coordinates. If
you have ever visited Sodor then please feel free to upload any
pictures you have.I hope it
wasn't too soggy! Sodor is also the home of 'Thomas the Tank
Engine' but more on that later...
Here is a map of Sodor. And it's magnificent
railway.
What has this got to do with the
cache?
The cache is a puzzle (See
below) and once you have solved it you can visit
our local version of
Sodor. There you will find some coordinates which will lead
you to the cache. Sodor is suitable for children of all ages.
The journey to the cache is about 5 minutes walk from Sodor on
paths that can be muddy. There is some water near the final
location so please be careful when with young children.
