Way Cool, Could you give some info on the attack without giving away it's location. Thank's for sharing....Steve

sticks907---i think the little balls are cannister shot

stevesno--cant give location of train, and if i told you the name of the attack it would be easy to find, the people in the are are tired of people sneaking on their property to hunt, one lady told me she has had her garden veges dug up and the holes left, so i prolly should have not even mentioned it at all, i'm sorry about that, i will try to keep my yap shut from now on, allthough if i can get in there and find something i will post it, thanks guys

Nice finds! Great variety of relics. Did he dig any old coins at all?
