Freight operations to Etiwanda began on December 27, 1913.[ 1] The station building opened on January 25, 1914, and was constructed by the Pacific Electric .[ 1] [ 2] [ 3] The Upland–San Bernardino Line began full operation on July 11, but cars may had run here from Pomona as early as the station's opening.[ 4] Passenger service was discontinued in 1941,[ 4] but the depot continued to function as a freight depot until 1960.[ 2]
