While the younger son darted around getting as much value as he could from the Scenic World ticket for the afternoon, I was checking out Waymarks, and potentials.
On the platform above where the Scenic Railway leaves, is a pair of binoculars, that require a $2 coin. This was a "View King" set, made in Japan, with 20 x 80 mm, Field 3.5°; No. 56903. It has great viewing to the east, but not much chance anywhere else.
With my camera having x 20 Zoom I was able to get shots of the Skyway cable car heading to the other side; so I felt I didn't need to have a look.
