Unincorporated community in California, United States
Towle (formerly, Towles) was an unincorporated community in Placer County, California. Towle was located on the Southern Pacific Railroad, east of Dutch Flat. It lies at an elevation of 3694 feet (1126 m).
History.
The name honors George and Allen Towle, local lumbermen. The Towle post office operated from 1891 to 1935. Towle was the site where a narrow-gauge lumber railroad connected to the Southern Pacific; it had stores, a town hall, and boarding houses. Most of Towle had been abandoned by the time Interstate 80 was built through the area. Only the foundation of the train station remains today.
