Santa Ana was a route of the Pacific Electric Railway constructed in 1905 and bought by Pacific Electric in 1911 running from the Pacific Electric Building in Los Angeles to the Southern Pacific depot in Santa Ana California. Santa Ana’s location as the premier city of Orange County allowed the route to be the most heavily trafficked in the region by far. By 1950 service had halved from its peak only five years earlier and cut back to a minor station in Bellflower.
