The resumption of the Mitre Train service to Retiro station, which was initially scheduled for early March, has been postponed to March 8. The delay is due to the necessity of completing safety tests and training for the personnel before the service can be fully restored. Although the service was expected to resume on March 1, the railway company, Trenes Argentinos, has announced a provisional operational scheme that will remain in place for an additional week from March 1 to March 7.

During this period, the Tigre branch of the Mitre line will resume operations on March 1 but will only run limited services to the Belgrano C station. Meanwhile, the José León Suárez and Bartolomé Mitre branches will continue to operate under their current arrangements, with services only available to Belgrano R station. This gradual return of services is essential to ensure that all safety protocols are met before the train line can return to full capacity, impacting the daily commute of many users in the area.

The adjustments to the Mitre service schedule illustrate the challenges faced by public transportation providers in Argentina, particularly in ensuring the safety and reliability of services amid ongoing infrastructure improvements. Consequently, users of the Mitre line are urged to stay informed about further changes to service times and operations as the company approaches the full restoration of service at Retiro.
