This winter in Buenos Aires, one of the city’s best-kept secrets opens its doors to delight children and families alike with a trip back in time aboard one of the city’s oldest locomotives. The Buenos Aires Railway Museum awaits you this winter break, from July 18 to August 2, with plenty of activities and a fluorescent train car to take you back in time and have fun.
Hop on a Fluorescent Train this winter break
From July 18 to August 2, the Buenos Aires Railway Museum is gearing up for winter break with a food fair, workshops for kids, shows, and many station-based events—so your winter break plans will feel like a journey through time among train cars from another era.
Plus, the star of the show at the museum this vacation is the “fluo” car—a fluorescent car where you can experience vibrant colors at night, even in broad daylight. Come dressed in neon colors and shine bright yourself! In this car with UV lights, you’ll be able to take incredible photos and enjoy a sensory experience that’s truly out of the ordinary.

In addition to the light-up car, the Railway Museum will feature an interactive exhibit for all ages where you can enjoy many activities:
- Creative Workshops
- Challenges and games for the whole family
- Entrepreneurs’ Fair
- Food court
The best part of this plan is that, in addition to enjoying the special vacation activities, your admission ticket gives you access to one of Buenos Aires’ lesser-known museums, where you can discover the history of rail travel in Buenos Aires through railway artifacts such as telegraphs, old cardboard tickets, historic clocks, and uniforms that take you back in time. Have you heard of the museum’s restaurant?
One of the must-see attractions, in addition to seeing a steam locomotive, is getting to step inside thePresidential Car.
Tickets can only be purchased at the museum’s ticket office .
