General Gutiérrez station, also known simply as Gutiérrez station,[1] is a light rail station located in the town of General Gutiérrez, Maipú Department, Mendoza Province, Argentina. The station opened on 28 February 2012, as part of Metrotranvía Mendoza.
History
[edit]In 1885, the station was inaugurated by the Buenos Aires and Pacific Railway, as part of the branch of Retiro to Mendoza. The station was re-opened on 28 February 2012, as one of the terminals of the Metrotranvía Mendoza.
On 9 September 2022, Trenes Argentinos began the inspection of tracks so that the station becomes the new western terminus of long-distance passenger service on the Retiro-San Luis-Mendoza line , which currently ends in the city of Justo Daract.[2]
