>The reason there are no photos of the 1894 Hemet depot is because it burned down in late
December 1897 or early January 1898 (I have the exact date in a newspaper reference
buried somewhere in my stacks of paperwork).
I finally found the misplaced newspaper reference:
December 16, 1897 The Evening Blade (Santa Ana)(p. 3, col. 4) - "The Santa Fe depot at Hemet,
Riverside county was burned yesterday. Nothing was saved."
