At mile 686.4 from San Francisco, the railroad made vast areas of rangeland available to ranchers by providing a vital link to civilization. It furnished an avenue for supplies and an outlet to numerous markets. This siding, built 30 years after the initial track laying, provided freighting facilities to local sheep ranchers.
