Ferrocarriles Argentinos (FA) was a state-owned company that managed the entire Argentine railway system for nearly 45 years. It was formed in 1948 when all the private railway companies were nationalised during Juan Perón's first presidential term, and transformed into the ''Empresa de Ferrocarriles del Estado Argentino'' (EFEA) (in English: Argentine State Railways Company). FA managed both, passenger and freight services, including long-distance and commuter rail trains in the metropolitan area of Buenos Aires. The company was broken up under the government of Carlos Menem following the privatisation of the railways; however in 2015 the government of Cristina Kirchner revived the brand for use on state-owned railways.〔(Otro salto en la recuperación de soberanía ) - Pagina/12, 16 April 2015〕〔(Es ley la creación de Ferrocarriles Argentinos ) - EnElSubte, 15 April 2015〕〔(Ferrocarriles Argentinos: Randazzo agradeció a la oposición parlamentaria por acompañar en su recuperación ) - Sala de Prensa de la Republica Argentina, 15 April 2015〕〔(Ingresó al Congreso la ley de creación de Ferrocarriles Argentinos ) - EnElSubte.com, March 2015〕 == Beginning == (詳細はMitre Law". On December 17, 1946, a contract was signed by Miguel Miranda, president of Instituto Argentino de Promoción del Intercambio and the ambassador Wladimir D'Ormesson for the sale of French companies in Argentina at a global price of A$ 182,796,173 (about USD 45 million). That included Compañía General de Buenos Aires, Province of Santa Fe and Rosario and Pto. Belgrano Railways. Two weeks after the agreement signed with French companies, the Government made an offer of £ 125 million to British companies although the railways were finally acquired at £150 million. The acquisition would be paid by Argentina with exports of meat and cereal to Great Britain, which would transfer the money to the former owners of the rail companies. On March 1, 1948, the Argentine government led by president Juan Perón took over the British railways. The acquisition of the foreign railways was shown by the government as an act of sovereignty that would contribute to development of Argentine industry.〔("Breve historia de los ferrocarriles argentinos" ), ''La Gazeta''〕 After the nationalisation, the Argentine network continued expansion until 1954, when it reached a peak of length, the most in its history.〔("Voy en tren, voy en avión" by Manolo Lafuente ), CBA24N.com〕〔("Afirman que la infraestructura ferroviaria es obsoleta" ), Cadena3, 2 Mar 2015〕 The Argentine network was also the biggest in Latin America. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ferrocarriles Argentinos」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
