Mendoza Station is a railway station located in the city of the same name in Argentina. It was inaugurated in 1885 and originally operated by state-owned Andean Railway (then taken over by British companies such as Buenos Aires and Pacific Railway).[1] Nowadays Mendoza is currently used by Metrotranvía Mendoza, a light rail transport system inaugurated in 2012.[2] The station is also served by state-owned company Trenes Argentinos Cargas which runs freight trains in the region.
The station operated between 1885 and 1993 when it was closed by the national government.[3] It remained disused and abandoned until 2012 when the Metrotranvía was inaugurated. The administrative building was reopened as a cultural centre named "Estación Cultural",[4] while the main station building was completely remodelled when Metrotranvía extended to Las Heras in 2019.[5]
