Train to Mar del Plata?

[Neil]

Has anyone taken it..? I have heard mixed things about it, considering a short trip in Nov.

I did...

Is not comfortable, is not clean, and due to the state of the railroad, at some points it gets extremely slow... but if you want to have the experience, and you have huge amounts of patience, then go ahead!!

The pros: is very cheap, and is a good way to see the landscape...

(don´t forget the toilet paper and a big bottle of water)

How cheap is "very cheap"?

I'm thinking that roundtrip ("return" for non-Yanquis) is about AR$130 on a bus. (full cama)

Kind of interested.

Take the bus. More reliable and comfortable.
