Bellflower is a planned light rail station in the Los Angeles County Metro Rail system.[1] It is part of the West Santa Ana Branch Transit Corridor project. Measure M funds are programmed for a scheduled completion in 2041, though the station may be constructed for an opening between 2033 and 2035.[2][3]

The first Bellflower Pacific Electric Depot, c. 1915

The station is located across Bellflower Boulevard from the former Pacific Electric West Santa Ana Branch depot,[4] built in 1927. Passenger services operated between 1905 and 1958; it served as the terminus of the line after 1950.[5] Early maps use the former name of the town for the stop: Somerset.
