The plaque says ,"While the first Temecula was an Indian village, OLD TOWN was born with the building of a railroad. Directly across the bridge was the site of the former California Southern depot and tracks. Off and on from 1882-1891 the line stretched from San Diego to Colton. Twice, the tracks flooded out in Temecula Canyon, the last time 1891 when services south ended."
