Buenos Aires Subway

The Buenos Aires Subway (locally known as Subte - from "subterráneo" - underground or subterranean) is a mass transit system that serves the city of Buenos Aires, Argentina. 
The first station of this network was inaugurated in 1913, being the first of its kind in Latin America and within the entire Southern Hemisphere. The network expanded rapidly during the early decades of the 20th century, but the pace of expansion fell sharply after the years following the Second World War. In the late 1990s there began a new expanding process, with the planning of four new lines. However, the rate of this expansion is largely excedeed by the actual transportation needs of the city and once again the network has become obsolete to this respect.
