Antártida Argentina (English: Argentine Antarctica) is a railway station located in Rosario, Santa Fe, Argentina, in the western neighbourhood of Fisherton (intersection of Morrison Avenue and Wilde St.). It is currently operated by state-owned Trenes Argentinos (for passenger services)[2] and private Nuevo Central Argentino (freight transport).
After railway services were cancelled, the station building served as cultural centre dependent on the Municipality of Rosario.[3] Nevertheless, In July 2022 the station was reopened after Trenes Argentinos extended services from Rosario Norte to Cañada de Gómez station.[1]
