A very well down fairly small (3 story building) museum, entirely volunteer staffed. Great information about the yes, Euro-history of Tucumcari and eastern New Mexico. Quite a lot to see here

This is worth the stop and visit. We spent about an hour here and it was well worth the admission fee. There is so much history and eclectic items here. You could probably come here a couple times and find more things. I really appreciate that the volunteer showed us around and explained some things as well.

Good fun place to explore the past. Fantastic rock/fossil collection and an exploration caboose! Our girls love the train, the new coin op horse ride, the playground, the school room. Really, we love all of it and feel so connected to.our beautiful.roots here.
