GCC#094 Foresight/Hindsight Traditional Geocache

This stretch of quiet country road was once wooden ties and iron rails of the I.B.&O. railway. After the railway shut down in 1960 the tracks became municipal property. The municipality of Monmouth, where you are walking, kept all its rail-bed. The municipality of Cardiff (starting from where you parked) sold off its rail-bed. Thus explaining why this road turns from public to private property. Moral of the story is: Take the time to imagine future possibilities.
Dark Lake, beside you, was once called Pusey Lake after the railway’s founder Charles J. Pusey.
