An important stop on the historic Santa Fe Line railroad, Lamar was founded during an argument between landowners. A feisty railroad crew demolished an existing depot, moved it three miles west and renamed it Lamar. Although the town's history is colorful, the present-day lifestyle in rural southeastern Colorado is quite tame. Best Western Lamar Colorado.
