Urquiza Line (Buenos Aires) - Urquiza Line Today

Urquiza Line Today

The number of passengers carried by the Urquiza Line has increased steadily in recent years and several improvements have been made, including adapting stations for the disabled, grade crossings improvements, new concrete sleepers and welded rail joints for the entire line and up-dated electrical components. In the meantime, it is still possible that the rebuilding of the existing ramp at Federico Lacroze would allow connection to line B subway, enabling trains to run through to the centre of Buenos Aires, a dilemma which is uncertain at this moment, simply because the UTA (Unión Tranviarios Automotor, in English; Tram Drivers' Union) and Rail Unions are not compatible with each other and therefore do not agree on it.

Famous quotes containing the words line and/or today:

    Every age has its temptations, its weaknesses, its dangers. Ours is in the line of the snobbish and the sordid.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    We had to take the world as it was given:
    The nursemaid sitting passive in the park
    Was rarely by a changeling prince accosted,
    The mornings happened similar and stark
    In rooms of selfhood where we woke and lay
    Watching today unfold like yesterday.
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
