I love trains

Argentina once had "the most extensive railroad system in Latin America" [Shumway]. Today, the system is much reduced, but you can still travel from Buenos Aires to some interior cities, including Bariloche, Córdoba, Mendoza, Posadas, & Tucumán. I look forward to taking a few of these trips. You can travel turista (tourist), primera (first class), Pullman, or camarote (sleeper).
