History
The Northwestern Pacific Railroad reached Willits by 1901, and passenger service to the original station began in 1902. That station was demolished in 1915 and rebuilt in its current location; a parking lot sits on the site of the original.[1]
The depot was added to the National Register of Historic Places on October 20, 1999.
gollark: I'm not sure exactly what I was thinking of at the time, but assuming you accept the alternate branches as "existing" in some way then creating new ones is ethically fraught, since you're basically duplicating all morally relevant entities ever.
gollark: A better version would destroy the original universe, to fix some of the ethical issues.
gollark: I guess there's a universe in which the drives have always worked perfectly, one where it's always just unexisted the users, and a bunch of intermediate ones.
gollark: Would people not stop buying them when everyone who uses them ceases to exist?
gollark: With 50% probability sort of maybe ish.
