Background
In October 1993, Ferrocarril Mesopotámico - General Urquiza began operations under a concession providing for lease of Argentina's Urquiza Railway for 30 years. The Urquiza line is now operating under the commercial name: ALL Mesopotámica (formerly "FMGU").

ALL Mesopotámica is a single-track standard gauge railway which extends north from the city of Buenos Aires to the northeastern cities of Posadas and Corrientes. ALL Meso connects directly with the Paraguayan and Uruguayan standard gauge rail networks and also links with the Brazilian meter gauge network. 

ALL Mesopotámica is owned by América Latina Logística (the Sao Paulo-based owner of Brazil's Ferrovia Sul Atlantico), RDC and the Argentine government.
