History
The station was originally opened on 15 October 1894, with the name Rincón Antonio. The station was constructed to serve the Ferrocarril Transístmico.[2]
Characteristics
The station has a metal structure, under fire-proof brick masonry brought from the Carnegie foundries. The station was on the ground floor of the general office building, which also housed the traffic superintendent's office, dispatchers' offices, and a restaurant. In the attic, between the pillars of the framework, there were rooms for guests.[3]
