Tolar, New Mexico (pronounced TOL-er) is a ghost town in the panhandle of northern Roosevelt County that existed in the 20th Century. The site is at the intersection of New Mexico State Road 86 and U.S. Routes 60 and 84 between Fort Sumner in De Baca County and Melrose in Curry County. Tolar was established as a stop on the Belen Cutoff of the Santa Fe Railway in 1907. A train carrying munitions exploded there in 1944, causing the largest accidental explosion in New Mexico history.

The first settler in the vicinity of Tolar was Alvin Ellender Jeter, who applied for a patent on 160 acres of land under the Homestead Act in 1901. Jeter found abundant groundwater there and built a half-dugout house. His daughter Marvie Ellen Jeter, born July 9, 1903, was the first child born at Tolar. The Jeter family moved to Haskell, Texas in 1917.

To bypass the steep grades on its line through the Raton and Glorieta Passes, the Santa Fe Railway in 1903 began work on the Belen Cutoff across East Central New Mexico, building a new line eastward from Belen through the Abo Pass to Texico on the state line with Texas. Much sand and gravel for construction of the railroad came from the vicinity of Tolar. A race riot broke out in 1905 amongst the construction workers and railroad men that led to eight deaths; supposedly the bodies were buried in fill at Tolar. The cutoff was finished in December 1907.

While still a tent city, the United States Post Office Department opened a post office at Tolar on August 18, 1905. J.W. Coleman, the first postmaster named the town for Tolar, Texas, where his daughter lived. In 1908, the town was platted. By 1911, 600 people lived there. Tolar had a school until 1926, when it was consolidated with one in Taiban. The railroad station closed in March 1933. The population fell to 350 by 1941 and under 300 in 1944.
