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

History

The station was originally opened on 15 October 1894, with the name Rincón Antonio. The station was constructed to serve the Ferrocarril Transístmico.[2]

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.[3]
