This letterbox is part of the GO and Experiment! program. It will be available from June 1, 2014 - August 17, 2014. Further details about the program may be found at www.goyork.org.

Through the GO and Experiment! program, you will be searching for "scientific terms" – wooden posts with engraved plates on them – instead of a traditional letterbox and stamp. Please carefully rub the impression from the engraved plate into your GO and Experiment! rubbing page, available at any York County library.

The letterbox is located in the Heritage Rail Trail County Park and may be accessed from the Brillhart Station parking area. GO York level of difficulty = Moderate

 From the parking lot carefully cross the road and turn right on the trail. You should be heading south and the train tracks should be on your right.
 Continue following the trail past the red gate.
 As you walk check out some of the rocks on the left side of the trail.
 Walk past the picnic table and the wood railing.
 Look for the Railroad Crossing sign on your left.
 At the trail cross over, look for the rubbing post on the left wood railing before the crossover on the trail.
 To return to your vehicle, return the way you came.
