Location

Somerville train station, eastbound platform

Plans

I commute to my current job by train. On returning from work, I'll walk over to the other platform and capture the flag.

Expedition

• OMG it's in Somerville! Who wants to meet me at the train station at 6:15 and walk over? -- Jevanyn 09:54, 30 November 2012 (EST)

• This expedition is good for a Walk geohash, since I walked from home to the station that morning, and a Public transport geohash achievement, since I did take the train back from Newark on the way to the site. It might also be a Deja Vu, since I was there before Friday. -- Jevanyn 09:34, 2 December 2012 (EST)

• It's technically not an Admit one achievement, since you don't have to buy a ticket to go up to the platform. -- Jevanyn 09:35, 2 December 2012 (EST)

  Is this the right place?

  The view east (Newark-bound)

  The view west, toward High Bridge

  The view north, I think there's an H&R Block in that building

• 

  Not sure if it's "Art Deco" or "Steam Punk"

Achievements

This user earned the Walk geohash Achievement by reaching the (40, -74) geohash on 2012-11-30 on foot.

This user earned the Public transport geohash achievement by reaching the (40, -74) geohash on 2012-11-30 using public transit.

Also qualifies for a Deja Vu, since I'm here every day, and an Easy geohash, since it's mere feet away from my daily commute. I already have those ribbons, though.

Jevanyn earned the Home Front Geohash achievement by reaching a geohash in my hometown, at the (40, -74) geohash on 2012-11-30.

Does not qualify as an Admit One, since you don't need a ticket to enter the platform. Does not qualify as a Speed Racer, because the train stopped at the station.
