Ferroclub Argentino

Ferroclub Argentino, Railway museum in Lanús Partido, Argentina.

Ferroclub Argentino is a non-profit civil association founded in 1972 that preserves and restores Argentine railway heritage through its preservation centres. Its CDP Escalada occupies 3 hectares within the Talleres del Ferrocarril General Roca in Remedios de Escalada, Lanús Partido, and holds a main hall with a 6-tonne overhead crane, a library and small-objects museum, a south shed, a 300-metre 26 cm gauge miniature railway with two stations, and a dining car used as a café.

Ferroclub Argentino was founded on 30 August 1972 by its first ten members, who met on Friday evenings and spent Saturdays visiting railway sites. In March 1983 it received custody of the Neilson locomotive No. 11 "Yatay" and tracks at the Coronel Francisco Lynch depot of the Ferrocarril General Urquiza. Legal personality followed in August 1985 under IGJ resolution 421/85.

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 Ferroclub holds around 160 railway vehicles in custody, cared for by roughly 300 active members out of more than 1,400 subscribers. Its Escalada centre, on 3 hectares of the Ferrocarril General Roca workshops, runs a 26 cm gauge miniature railway 300 m long with two stations.
