- Línea Belgrano Sur (Buenos Aires)
The Línea Belgrano Sur (in English: Belgrano Southern Line) is a commuter rail service in the city of Buenos Aires, Argentina run by the private company Transportes Metropolitanos Belgrano Sur S.A. (TMB), a subsidiary of Metropolitano, between 1 May 1994 and 22 May 2007. This service had previously been run by the state-owned Ferrocarril General Manuel Belgrano since nationalisation of the railways in 1948.
The Línea Belgrano Sur operates the following services:
1) From the terminus of Buenos Aires South Belgrano Line Station, outside the city centre, to González Catán along a narrow gauge line built by the French-owned CGBA.
2) From the terminus Estación Puente Alsina, just outside the city, to Aldo Bonzi, [Study of rail extension between General Belgrano station to "Merlo-Lobos" Sarmiento rail line.

In spite of the large government subsidies received by TMB a serious decline [cite web | author=Sagasti, Ramiro| year=2008| title=La odisea de viajar en tren... | work=La Nación | url=http://www.lanacion.com.ar/archivo/nota.asp?nota_id=980626&origen=relacionadas | accessdate=2008-03-03 es icon] in the standard of their rail services has led to the original concession being revoked and since 2007 the service has been operated by the consortium UGOFE. á
