Three rooms of the original depot are full of model trains, historical train artifacts, and train memorabilia. The waiting room is now the gift shop and ticket office. The Station Master’s Room has been configured to tell the Station Master’s story: what it was like to operate a railroad from a small station anywhere along the routes that crossed the southern part of New Mexico. The baggage room features several large model train layouts.
