The AT & SF Roundhouse in Las Vegas, New Mexico, located northeast of Grand Ave., was built in 1917. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.[1]

It was originally built as a nine-stall train engine roundhouse of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway, and was later enlarged to sixteen stalls in 1899. The current building is a 34-stall roundhouse which replaced the original in 1917, at cost of about $200,000.[2]
