History

The old A&P depot

AT&SF built the depot in 1925, opening on January 5, 1926.^[1] The station's elevation is 6,902 feet (2,104 m) above sea level. Adjacent is the 1886 solid-red sandstone freight depot originally built by the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad.^[4] Both the former Santa Fe Depot and the Atlantic and Pacific Depot that it replaced are contributing properties to the Railroad Addition Historic District.^[5]

In October 2024, the city was awarded a $5 million federal grant to build a second platform serving the south track and modify the existing platform for accessibility.^[6]
