Tren de los Pueblos Libres("Train of the Free Pets")  had the intention for trains to reach Montevideo and its first official journey, the train only reached Salto where people had to get out.
The Tren de los Pueblos Libres ("Train of the Free Peoples") was an 813-km length rural railway line that connected Argentina and Uruguay, being operated by both the Argentine private company Trenes de Buenos Aires (TBA) on General Urquiza Railway standard gauge rail tracks, and Uruguayan the State-owned State Railways Administration of Uruguay "Administracion de Ferrocarriles del Estado" (AFE). The project included the intention for trains to reach Montevideo in December 2011, although it would never be carried out. On its first official journey, the train only reached Salto due to the Uruguayan Ministry of Transport still not having given authorisation for the service to operate in the country. Therefore, all passengers had to get out in Salto and the train continued without people to Paso de los Toros.
