Matías Romero railway station

Matías Romero is a train station in Matías Romero, Oaxaca.

History
The station was originally opened on October 15, 1894, with the name Rincón Antonio. The station was constructed to serve the Ferrocarril Transístmico.

The line would later be reopened on December 22, 2023, 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.

As of December 22, 2023, the station is expected to reopen in June 2024. In March 2024, the renovation of the station by SEDATU was completed.

Characteristics
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.
