Historical plaque inscription:The Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad and its subsidiary, the Pacific Land Improvement Company, founded the town of Claremont in 1887. The railroads original wooden, Gothic depot was replaced by this Spanish Colonial Revival structure in 1927. Designed by Santa Fe architect William H. Mohr, the exterior of the passenger waiting room features concrete churrigueresque trim and the doors are carved with Santa Fes distinctive cross and circle logo of the 1920s. The depot was closed in 1967 and remained vacant until it was purchased by the City of Claremont in 1989 and adapted to serve as a transit center in 1992. THIS BUILDING WAS LISTED ON THE NATIONAL REGISTER OF HISTORIC PLACES IN 1982.

A great train depot station in Claremont! I would usually get out here from the train, when I had a lot of time between classes, to spend time in downtown of Claremont, a town which I really like. The depot is quite clean, and I can say that in this depot, I feel safe waiting for the train, even in evenings. They have CCTV cameras. There are two lines, one is going to San Bernardino, the other is going to downtown of Los Angeles.

A nice depot station, located in downtown Claremont. The architecture is quite beautiful, the place itself is quite clean, and I felt safe in this area, while waiting for the train. Of course, from this station, passengers can go to Los Angeles Union Station or downtown of San Bernardino. In addition, this station is near many eateries and Claremont Colleges.

Beautiful, restored early 20th C Depot (1927) built by the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad. Now the home to the Claremont Museum of Art. Presently, the Metrolink Brown Line - serving Downtown San Bernardino to the LA Union Station and vice versa - stops at the depot. There is no longer a ticket agent at the depot, but there are ticket machines for the Metrolink, along with benches, canned voice messages, and electronic signage announcing arrivals and departures.
