History


The City of Industry station opened on June 14, 1993, and built at a cost of $2.4 million.[7] In 1994, the Riverside line, which then ran from downtown Los Angeles to the Industry station, had Metrolink's highest ridership per week, averaging 2,000 passengers.[8] In 2012, 8,000 solar panels were installed to cover 940 parking spaces in an $11 million project that generates 2.2 megawatts (3,000 hp) of electricity per hour.[9] The project also included the installation of 64 electric car charging stations.[10] Most of the funding came from Proposition 1A, although the South Coast Air Quality Management District also provided a $2 million grant.[10]
