The Glendale Southern Pacific Railroad Depot (now known as Glendale Amtrak/Metrolink Station) was designed in the Mission Revival Style by architects Maurice Couchot and Kenneth MacDonald, Jr. and built by the Southern Pacific Railroad in 1923; replacing an older one that dated as far back as 1883. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on May 2, 1997 - #97000376, and has undergone an extensive renovation since then. The Glendale train station is located at 400 Cerritos Avenue. Members of a Coast Guard Spars honor guard eat lunch on the platform of the Glendale Southern Pacific station while awaiting the arrival of the Hollywood Bond Cavalcade, returning from a nationwide tour in which Cavalcade stars sold more than a billion dollars in war bonds.
