Geocache Description:

An easy cache and dash for a magnetic nano close to the station.

We have Motorway Mayhem. We have A-Road Anarchy. But what about public transport users? SideTracked Caches are intended to provide quick Cache-and-dashes at Train Stations.

It is hoped this idea will spread across the country in the same way as the MMs….but if hiding one PLEASE BE SENSIBLE and remember that in this day and age, public transport is under greater scrutiny than ever before, so, although these caches should be quick and easy grabs, PLEASE don’t place a Cache where it could cause alarm!!!

Blake Street Station was opened in 1884 although the present building was built in the late 20th century. The London and North Western Railway extended the line from Birmingham through Sutton Coldfield and onward to Lichfield.

Blake Street serves the Hill Hook area of Sutton Coldfield and is managed by the London Midland line and around 180,000 commuters use the line annually.

You are looking for a magnetic nano and if there is space you may be able to park right near it. There will be muggles about so please take great care.

Well done to Monki Footballer and Grand's Gang for FTF.
