This November 1964 photo shows the former Etiwanda Fruit Association packing house. It was just west of the PE depot on the opposite side of Etiwanda Avenue. (Marty Quaas photo)

My thanks to Mike Curran for identifying the packing houses.

Etiwanda in 2009

The photos below were taken by Jim Lancaster on February 26, 2009.  There is an ongoing effort to restore the depot as a museum. The former PE right-of-way is now the Pacific Electric Trail for cyclists and joggers.
