The Railway also immediately began grading a line from Jamestown to Sonora. Sonora never agreed to a rightofway, and a line was completed in 1899 with a depot (shown below) just south of the city limits that later continued on to what is now Tuolumne City. In 1946, the Sonora Depot caught fire, and burned down to its marble foundations.
