Kramer Station is just west of the intersection of highways 58 and 395. Travel west on 
highway 58 just a few miles until you cross the railroad tracks then immediately turn right 
and follow the dirt road that parallels the tracks about a mile. You will pass a large corral. 
The desert is littered with rusty cans and broken bottles from bottle collectors digging in 
the area.

There are no remaining structures at Kramer Station and only one grave marker remains. It 
states a boy named Gallegos died at the age of 7 years and 5 months on the 6th day of August, 
1922. I checked the 1920 US census for Kramer Station and there was no family named Gallegos. 
There were darn few people left in Kramer by then. I checked with the Boron Museum and they 
were going to check for any records but I’m not holding my breath.
