I don't think the winery (which is west of this location) suffered any damage. The Lasseter residence is also not-marked as damged.

I could only imagine trying to map all of that data. Pretty nuts.

I'm not familiar with the railroad's layout. Do we know from this map whether the station and water tower were destroyed? From this map, it appears that most structures surrounding what appears to be a railroad were destroyed.

That image, coupled with the map above, seems to indicate "Destroyed" as the outcome.

This is an updated version of the map I saw a week or so ago- It now marks the Grizzly Flats Depot as destroyed, along with the structures to the right of it that were marked that way on the earlier map. I was still hoping….

So sad... I was also wondering if John L had any RR antiques on display inside, like Ward did when it was in his backyard.
