    I was just wondering if anybody knows when Santa Fe abandoned the line from South Corona to Lemon Grove. This line passed through Temecula, Murrieta, and Fallbrook. It also had a Junction at Elsinore which connected to Perris. Thank you for any help.

    Read "The History of the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railway" By Kieth Bryant. It is one of the best on history of Santa Fe thru 1974. The Temecula-O'side segment was abandoned in early 1900s after a few washouts. Elsinor-Temecular abandoned in 20s or 30s & Corona-Elsinor in 70s or 80s.
