Approximate location — plotted from published sources, not a site visit, and not a guarantee of access.
Railroad ghost town northeast of Wells where the Nevada Northern met the Western Pacific Feather River Route. Founded 1906 as Bews, renamed Shafter in 1907 for Spanish–American War general William Rufus Shafter; depot, school (closed 1932), and post office (closed 1959) once served ~40 residents. Foundations and the still-named Shafter Subdivision mark the junction today.
