Chris brings up a point.
There were a number of locations that had "home made" structures located on railroad property.
I'll use my experience as an example.
During the 1940 and 1950s our family lived in section houses at various locations.
At one location there was a home made garage.
When we moved to another location my Dad built a garage himself.
These type of structures were not authorized and could not be shown as improvements to property.
As a result these structures most likely would not be reflected on a company map.
