La Trochita, 750mm gauge line in Patagonia, Argentina

La Trochita is a narrow-gauge railway running through Chubut and Río Negro provinces. The line features historic stations and vintage cars that continue to operate on select sections of track.

The railway was built in the early 1900s to connect remote areas and improve regional transport. Its role diminished over time as other transportation methods developed.

Check ahead to confirm which train services are running, as operations vary across different sections. Travel during warmer months when conditions are most suitable for regular service.

The railway is known for making extended stops in open countryside where passengers can sometimes step out and explore the landscape. This unusual approach to service creates a more intimate travel experience.
