Matías Romero is a train station in Matías Romero, Oaxaca.
History
[edit]The station was originally opened on October 15, 1894, with the name Rincón Antonio. The station was constructed to serve the Ferrocarril Transístmico.[1]
The line would later be reopened on December 22, 2023,[3][4] although it is reported that the station itself was only 30% complete, because a week prior, the workers there suspended their work, due to the construction company not paying their wages for the month.[5][6]
As of December 22, 2023, the station is expected to reopen in June 2024.[2] In March 2024, the renovation of the station by SEDATU was completed.[7]
Characteristics
[edit]The station has a metal structure, under fire-proof brick masonry brought from the Carnegie foundries. The station was on the ground floor of the general office building, which also housed the traffic superintendent's office, dispatchers' offices, and a restaurant. In the attic, between the pillars of the framework, there were rooms for guests.[8]
