NAME: Walters
COUNTY: Lander

BEST TIME TO VISIT: Anytime.
COMMENTS: Interesting country.
REMAINS: The stone station.

Walters was both a stop and a recreational spot on the Nevada Central Railroad and was active from 1880 to 1938. A baseball diamond was laid out and was a favorite game for weekenders. Today the solid stone station still stands, one of the better remaining station houses on the old railroad. But it has been the victim of graffiti vandals.
