Railroad depot, Bodie, California, USA

Railroad depot, Bodie, California, USA
This was part of another guided tour. A railroad that had been built to a stand of pine down in the Mono basin ended here, at the ridge crest above town on the east. It was used to haul timber both for building and for firewood. Wood also fired the locomotive! IIRC the railroad didn't connect to any through line. It was merely for supplying timber.
The tracks have long since been removed, probably a hundred years ago now.
