The Depot

Hurst Ranch X Alex Morehouse-30.jpg

This building was the railroad station in Clint Eastwood's movie THE UNFORGIVEN.

It was built in Canada where the movie was first being filmed. Then the filming company got in a kerfuffle with some Canadian regulators. The next chapter of its life took about ten years. Mr. Tom Doyle, friend of Clint's and owner of the Big Whiskey, where Hollywood stars stayed when filming in Tuolumne County, bought and stored the disassembled station on his property. On a hay delivery, Joe Hurst saw it and made a deal with Tom to take it off his hands...and it was re-erected here at the ranch.

Now Kari Faughnan, present owner of the Big Whiskey and Tom's station, is reunited with The Depot.

She was the owner of Jamestown Coffee for 15 years and wanted to get her business going again. Hurst Ranch needed a wine tasting room, so once again, a deal was made. The Depot has coffee, wine tasting, olive oil, honey, vinegar, cheese - all local. Kari would be happy to make gift baskets upon request. So don’t hesitate to reach out via phone or email to set something up!
