Description
Title supplied by cataloger.
This section of the Upland-San Bernardino Line was converted into the Pacific Electric Inland Empire trail, designated for walking, jogging or riding a bicycle or a horse. While this depot has since been demolished, the neighboring Pacific Electric/Southern Pacific freight depot, in use from 1915-1961, was restored in the mid-2000s and operates as the Art Depot Gallery.
Exterior of the Spanish-style passenger depot located on Spring Street in Fontana, serving both the Upland-San Bernardino Line of the Pacific Electric Railway Company and the Southern Pacific Railroad Company.
