La Habra, CA ... Just to the east of Whittier, and what most consider the final OC frontier before falling into La La land. La Habra is rich in RR history and embraced it years back when the La Habra UP depot was set up as a children's museum. The only active ROW through the city is the UP (Former SP/PE) that trails out of Whittier from the west and proceeds into Fullerton. Like the line through Whittier, it is used by the UP's LOA36R (Fullerton Local) weekly and features many scenic settings with most of the line lined by parks and trails full of tree's and hills.
