There has only been one Railroad Hotel/Eating House in Como, there were other properties in the City offering accommodation.

The Gilman had an extension to the rear, the basement section is still here and included the hand dug brick lined well. When the Pacific burned down in 1896 the basement section was retained and covered by a flat wooden roof/deck that in 1954 was the former for a concrete slab.

In the very early years there was a tall chimney about 20ft behind this extension, went above roof line, always wondered what it was for.
