Plans

going there before work. On the aerial photo it looks as if the coordinates are on the edge of a platform. I hope at least within arm's length from it...

Expedition

So today I took a detour through the city of Winterthur in the morning traffic. Parked in the station parking deck. According to the aerial photo, the coordinates are on the edge of the 5th track. And I actually found the geohash right on the edge of the platform to the tracks. So I was able to legally document my success with screenshots and photos.

The cool thing is that I celebrated this geohash with hundreds of others and no one knew about it... Shortly before I was there, a train drove in via the geohash and a little later a train drove past me via the coordinates. Ok, actually only the outermost row of seats would be successful :-) Does this now count as a meetup? of course not... and I didn't want to approach any passengers standing around and interrupt that morning meditation... At another time of day this would have been an option...
