Cucamonga has fairly rich history. It started as land grant in 1839 to Tiburcio Tapia from land belonging to the Mission Gabriel. Casa de Rancho Cucamonga became known as Cucamonga and lying between Los Angeles and Riverside was on the rail route. In 1950 Mel Blanc introduced his famous call "Train leaving on Track 5 for Anaheim, Azusa and Cuuuu-ca-mon-gaaa!" in the Jack Benny Show. The call then followed Blanc into the world of Cartoons.
