This photograph was taken at Mechita, a small and desolated town 80 km away from Buenos Aires city. It was a Sunday evening and no one was around these old wagons, which have been abandoned for almost 30 years now. Still, the km sign looked new, as if it had just been painted… as if trains were still going through that stop. Funny cause the train systems around these small towns have unfortunately stopped working in Argentina for a long time now.
