History

Southern Pacific built a branch to Covina which was opened to passengers on August 30, 1895. The original Covina station was a boxcar, but a depot was soon built between First and Second Streets. The station proved valuable as a freight depot as it was in the vicinity of several fruit packers. The new Metrolink station opened with the service on October 26, 1992.
