Bajo Hondo Train Station

Bajo Hondo Train Station is a railway station, one of the two railway lines built by two different European companies running to the south of Buenos Aires Province it is located in the town of Bajo Hondo in Coronel Rosales Municipality.

History 

The history of this station/town is similar to the so many other towns of the country that were born with the passage of the Railway line. 

The station Bajo Hondo was opened to the public on January 1, 1910 by the "Compagnie de Chemins de Fer Rosario-Puerto Belgrano" this was a French company.  Railway transport was the only means of transporting agricultural products and livestock of the time.

The service did not last for long. Three years after, When the first World war started in 1914, the French company was affected way back home and could not continue financing the Railway project.The project went on but with services getting poorer since it was poorly funded.

In 1948, the Government took over its management and divided into two. In 1991 the Government privatised it. The Northern part was operated by the General Mitre railway and the Southern by the General Roca Railways. In the 80's, part of the South Railway line was destroyed by the floods making it impossible to use. Part of the North Railway line is functioning to date (from Rosario Santa fe Province to Timote Train Station in Carlos Tejedor Municipality, Buenos Aires Province).

Accident 

On November 27 1930, in the morning hours, an Avro training aircraft (identified HE 2), belonging to the Naval Aviation School of Puerto Belgrano, was flying low near the Bajo Hondo station building of the Rosario - Puerto Belgrano Railway and its wings crashed into  one of the chimneys of the building, destroyed the building and the Aircraft fell 50 meters away from the building being completely destroyed.

Bajo Hondo Train Station (Roca Railway)

For the Rosario Railroad station to Puerto Belgrano, see Bajo Hondo Train Station.

Bajo Hondo Train Station is a railway station, located in Bajo Hondo town, Coronel Rosales Municipality, in the Province of Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Services 
It is a small station of the branch belonging to the General Roca Railway, from the Tandil to the Bahía Blanca station. It does not provide passenger services.

History 

The station was founded in 1891 by the British capital company. Although it had been founded as the Buenos Aires Great Southern Railway (BAGS), it was almost immediately called the Ferrocarril del Sud. The Bajo Hondo station was one of the 504 active stations that the company had until its nationalization. During the presidency of General Juan Domingo Perón, that company was renamed General Roca Railroad until today.

The date of inauguration of this station also doubles as the birth date of the Bajo hondo town.

Since the privatizations of the state-owned company Ferrocarriles Argentinos in the 90's, the Bajo hondo train station stopped providing services to passengers.

The station is currently inactive.

The building at the station has a certain degree of deterioration, and is currently used as a private home.

Paso Mayor Train Station

Paso Mayor Train Station is a train station in the municipality of Coronel Rosales, in the Province of Buenos Aires, Argentina.

History 
Its construction was completed on December 19. Constructed a French company known as:  "Compagnie de Chemins de Fer Rosario-Puerto Belgrano".

Paso Mayor is located approximately 40 kilometers from Bahía Blanca and owes its name to a pass through a River called  "Sauce Grande" which the local people used to cross that River at the  time when there was no bridge to cross the river. The station is one of those which were classified as "Prime stations" because of their provisions for more services than other stations. For example Paso Mayor provided services including but not limited to : Passengers, Telegraph, Cargo, Livestock... 

Originally, in this area there was a place combining both store and bar, locally known as "pulpería" which belonged to a man called Laporte. So the place was called "Pulpería de Laporte" meaning "Store and bar of Laporte"  Because the same place offered Horse services, that is ; travellers could have their tired horses changed for Fresh ones, the same place at times was called "Posta" of Paso Mayor. ("Posta" is a place where travellers change their tired horses for Fresh ones).  This place served as a place for rest and shopping centre for travellers and traders who came to buy Hides and Skins and Liquor (Gin).

With the introduction of the Railway line, the "Posta" suffered a severe blow as Wagons and Carriages replaced Horses. The Pulperia became a tiny supermarket.

The presence of the Railway line called for people to come and settle around the train station. As a result, the place became  a busy small town. But following the withdrawal of the Railway services in the seventies(1970s), the people abandoned the place and until now, it is a ghost town. 

The station was never provided with electrical installation and the lighting was provided by wax candles or kerosene lamps..

The state of the buildings at the station in general is bad, has been vandalized several times.

Close of Operations 
The passage of this railway branch through sparsely populated areas, low productivity lands and the outbreak of the First World War in Europe, this French line will enter a chronic deficit that will pursue it until its last days. 

In 1977, the closure of a line section was ordered from the Bajo Hondo stations to Pringles (closing of the Paso Mayor station). In the 80 'it is in operation only until the station Timote by a great flood that destroyed kilometers of the tracks. 

Finally in the 90 'was awarded in its entirety to the company Ferroexpreso Pampeano S.A. that is still the concessionaire of said branch.

Petra

Petra (Arabic: البتراء, Al-Batrāʾ; Ancient Greek: Πέτρα) is a historical and archaeological city in southern Jordan. 

It is in a basin among the mountains that run from the Dead Sea to the Gulf of Aqaba.

History 
Petra is believed to have been settled as early as 9,000 BC. It became the capital city of the Nabataean Kingdom. The Nabataeans were nomadic Arabs who used Petra because it was near the spice trade routes.

The Nabataean Kingdom became a client state of the Roman Empire in the first century BC. In 106 AD  they lost their independence. Petra's importance declined as sea trade routes developed. Also, the 363 earthquake destroyed many structures. 

The Byzantine Era led to the construction of several Christian churches, but the city continued to decline. By the early Islamic era only a handful of nomads lived in Petra. It stayed unknown to the world until it was rediscovered in 1812 by Johann Ludwig Burckhardt.

UNESCO Status 
Petra has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1985. UNESCO has described it as "one of the most precious cultural properties of man's cultural heritage". 

Petra is Jordan's most-visited tourist attraction. Tourist numbers peaked to half a million in the first quarter of 2019.
