Las Vegas station is an Amtrak train station at Railroad Avenue and Lincoln Street in Las Vegas, New Mexico. Built in 1899, the two-story brick station building was designed in the Spanish Mission style and features a red tile roof, ornate metal brackets and a curving parapet. The station was renovated in 2000, when approximately $1.2 million was secured from federal, state and private sources. It reopened as the Las Vegas Intermodal Facility and now houses a passenger waiting room and the city's Visitor Center.[4]
The station is near the
Mission Revival Style building in the state of New Mexico, opening for business on January 17, 1899.[2]
The station and former hotel are contributing properties to the Railroad Avenue Historic District.
