To celebrate South America's rich railway heritage, the travel agency SouthAmerica.travel has listed the 7 most beautiful train stations on the subcontinent, represented through illustrations that highlight their formal and compositional aspects, characteristic of the different historical periods in which they were built.
Discover them below.
