Description
View of stone depot in Rhyolite. Typewritten on photo sleeve: "MASSIVE STONE DEPOT which once served three separate railroads - the Tonopah and Tidewater, the Bullfrog and Goldfield, and the Las Vegas and Tonopah - now is the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Herschel Heisler, who have filled the lower floors with mementos of Rhyolite's short bonanza years in the first decade of the century. Mrs. Heisler's brother, N. C. Westmoreland, operated a desert resort in the station from 1935 until the mid-1940's. General George Patton was a guest here when training his troops in Arizona for the African desert action of World War II." [N[evada] T[est] S[ite] News March 15, 1963 p. 4]
