This station is a NY Department of Transportation standard disk, located at the junction of Brickhouse Road and NY Route 311, in a culvert headwall:

FROM THE INTERSECTION OF NEW YORK STATE ROUTE 311 AND NEW YORK STATE
ROUTE 292 IN THE TOWN OF PATTERSON GO SOUTH ON NEW YORK STATE ROUTE
311 FOR 0.6 MILES TO BRICKHOUSE ROAD AND THE STATION ON THE RIGHT.
THE STATION IS AN ALUMINUM DISK SET IN THE EAST END OF A CONCRETE
HEADWALL AT THE SOUTHWEST INTERSECTION OF NEW YORK STATE ROUTE 311 AND
BRICKHOUSE ROAD.

THE STATION IS 7.25 FEET SOUTH OF EDGE OF PAVEMENT ON BRICKHOUSE ROAD,
47.55 FEET EAST OF UTILITY POLE NYSEG 230 336 100A, 116.9 FEET
SOUTHWEST OF UTILITY POLE 230 E 335 NYT 17 AND 23 .23 FEET WEST OF
THE END OF GUIDE RAIL.

The description is thorough, and the disk is very easy to find. It can readily be seen from the road. The best place to park a vehicle is on Brickhouse Road, near the angle of the intersection.

This station is still relatively 'new', and therefore not loggable at the Geocaching site at this time, even though it has a NGS PID.
