Ferrocentral was an Argentine private railway company, with a name being a portmanteau of the Spanish words for "Central Rail". It operated long-distance passenger trains from its base at Retiro Mitre station in Buenos Aires to several locations in northern Argentina, running on Ferrocarril Mitre's Indian gauge tracks.
The company also ran regional services (such as Tren de las Sierras) on Ferrocarril Belgrano's tracks in Córdoba Province. The National Government invested $10 million to re-open the line.
