Santa Fe Depot

Railyard · 2008 · Rail Runner service begins

What you'll hear here: about a minute of narration about Santa Fe Depot, and how it fits Railyard, written to be listened to on the spot rather than read at home.

Your platform sits at 410 Guadalupe Street, the northern terminus of the New Mexico Rail Runner Express commuter line. Originally built by the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe, this station sits at 410 Guadalupe Street inside the Railyard urban renewal area. Rail Runner service to the station began on December 17, 2008.

Until 2014 the depot also served as the northern terminus, offices, and gift shop of the Santa Fe Southern Railway, a tourist and freight carrying short line railroad. Today the Depot links you to the city by Santa Fe Trails routes 2, 4, and M, by a downtown shuttle, by the North Central Regional Transit District shuttle to Taos, and by a shuttle to the Buffalo Thunder Resort & Casino in Pojoaque Pueblo. Each Rail Runner station bears an icon expressing community identity; here the chosen icon is a locomotive, honoring the history of the rail yard at the site — though the station is currently devoid of the Rail Runner's distinctive signage that usually names and displays that icon.

Listen for the next train and picture the shuttles linking this depot to Taos and Pojoaque Pueblo.
