Alberti Norte (Buenos Aires Underground)

Alberti Norte is a ghost station in the Buenos Aires Underground, which was part of Line A until its closure in 1953.

Given its proximity to Pasco's northern platform (located just 124 metres away), both Alberti Norte and Pasco Sur stations were closed in 1953 in order to improve the line's frequency, since the close proximity of stations in that part of the line meant that trains could never accelerate to full speed before having to stop again.

[3] When the Underground services were privatised by concession to Metrovías in the 1990s, the company closed up the platform and turned it into an electrical substation for the line.

The most popular of these claims that when the station was being built, two railway workers were buried alive and their deaths were covered up and never reported to the local media.

Another myth claims that if the lights went out on the old La Brugeoise cars when passing the station, one could see passengers dressed in period clothing waiting on the platform.

The station in 1913.
