The second service station to be built in Vega was the Magnolia Service Station, in 1924. It had two stories, and the operator lived on the upper floor. The ground floor hosted a barber shop.

In the 1970s, after serving gasoline for decades, when I-40 bypassed the town, the service station closed. Recovery and restoration began in 2001 when the City of Vega applied to the National Park Service Route 66 Corridor Preservation Program for a cost- share grant.

The rehabilitated building was dedicated in 2004 and is now a visitor center and displays photographs and vintage artifacts for visitors to enjoy.
