About SideTracked

We have Motorway Mayhem. We have A-Road Anarchy (cos there aren’t many Motorways in Wales!). 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!!!

About Strines
Strines is a village in Greater Manchester, located in the valley of the River Goyt midway between Marple and New Mills and about six miles southeast of Stockport. The village falls mainly within Marple parish and Stockport metropolitan borough, though a small part (including the railway station) falls within the boundaries of New Mills and thus in the Borough of High Peak, Derbyshire. Immediately surrounding Strines are the villages of Woodend, Hague Bar and Brookbottom. Close by are the towns of Marple and New Mills and the villages of Mellor and Rowarth. Nearby is the hamlet of Turf Lea.

It is served by Strines railway station on the Hope Valley Line.

Well done to Rigsby's Mob for FTF!
