TREN ECUADOR

For the record, the first railroad in Ecuador dates back to 1873, and the presidency of Gabriel García Moreno; the first line covered 41 km between Yaguachi and Milagro, on the coast. In 1895, with the triumph of the Revolución Liberal led by Eloy Alfaro Delgado, work resumed. In 1897, the Guayaquil and Quito Railway Company was created to build the Ferrocarril del Sur (Southern Railway), and in 1902, the famous Nariz del Diablo line was built on the hill known as Cóndor Puñuna ("Condor's Nest").
