I did some research and found an old railroad terminal located in a near by town. Viewed the location on line and noticed that the old terminal was no longer there but a large grassy area remained at the location of the terminal. The terminal dated back to the early 1900's.

Drove to the location this morning and the grassy area had NO TRESPASSING signs at either end. What a disappointment.

I stopped in a near by restaurant to have a bite to eat and the restaurant had old photographs on the wall of the old terminal, complete with vintage automobiles parked near by. It was a very impressive building.

Well, at least I saw some nice pictures.

The RR owns the land and they are the ones who put up the signs..... also have folks who drive by this area on regular basis to run people off, according to the lady in the near by restaurant.

The first train station in Fullerton CA is gone now and a park was put in it's place then fenced off. Turns out the soil is contaminated with some "hazardous waste".
