A look at the Oppenheimer train stop in New Mexico as it stands today.
Aug 09, 2023The Lamy Train Station in Santa Fe, New Mexico is a small, unassuming Spanish Mission Revival building about fifty miles south of Los Alamos. In the 1940s, it was frequented by Robert Oppenheimer, Los Alamos Laboratory staff, and their families while en route to the secret military site.
Originally owned by Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe Railway, Amtrak runs the Lamy Train Station today. In addition to nuclear fission, Oppenheimer was known for making a good martini. But if he wanted one, Lamy Station wasn’t serving during World War II, so he would have had to take a short walk across the street to the Mercantile Saloon.today, the saloon is the oldest operating bar in New Mexico. It was built in the same year as Lamy Station and has survived town fires and numerous changes of ownership since the late 1800s.
