Ferrocarril del Sud
The Chimpay railway station was inaugurated in 1889 as a stop in the Bahía Blanca-Confluencia line of the Buenos Aires Great Southern Railway. Around 1900, settlers started to populate the Mid Valley region, which was organized with Choele Choel as its center. At that time, the town was considered a lodging area for travelers. Chimpay later developed as an agricultural productive area.
