Las Vegas, NM is another northern New Mexican unstaffed Amtrak Station with it's station building still intact although it's now used as a video store and rental car agency. The cities has no similarities to it's much, much, much better known namesake in Nevada, although it does warrant a nice big bold note underneath the station name on the Amtrak.com Station list of 'No Casino Resorts', with Las Vegas - Bus Service, NM listed underneath it. |
