Ferroclub Argentino, Railway museum in Lanús Partido, Argentina.
Ferroclub Argentino is a railway museum in Remedios de Escalada that displays restored locomotives, passenger cars, and railway equipment. The collection documents the development of rail transport in Argentina across multiple decades.
The museum was founded in 1972 by railway enthusiasts dedicated to protecting rail vehicles and documentation. This initiative grew from a desire to preserve the country's railway heritage for future generations.
The museum shows how railways shaped Argentine life and brings together people from different generations. The exhibitions tell stories about the importance of rail lines for trade, work, and travel across the country.
Visits are by appointment only and the organization is funded through membership fees and private donations. Contact the museum in advance to arrange a visit and learn about current access options.
The organization operates three workshops where volunteers actively restore and bring old locomotives and train cars back into working condition. This restoration work makes it possible not just to display historical vehicles but also to run them.
