Ferrocarriles Argentinos Sociedad del Estado (abbreviated as FASE),[1] is a state-owned railway company of Argentina created for the operation and maintenance of the Argentine railway network in the country, including passenger and freight services, and infrastructure.[3][4][5][6]

The company shares name with the previous national operator which was broken up during the privatisation process, and also uses a modified version of its original logo. FASE is divided into three divisions: Trenes Argentinos Operaciones (passenger services), Trenes Argentinos Cargas (freight), and Trenes Argentinos Infraestructura (infrastructure).[7][8]

In March 2021, Minister of Transport announced that Ferrocarriles Argentinos S.E. would be put operative again, after an almost five-year hiatus during the presidency of Mauricio Macri.[8][9]

As of May 2022, Trenes Argentinos had 30,102 employees, making it the Argentine company with the most employees.[2]
