on november–december 1989 the ferrocarril mitre reactivated the rosario central station when the municipality of rosario launched a passenger service (named "ferrobús") using the chasis of a bus specially remodeled to run as a train coach. departing from rosario central, the "ferrobús" crossed the rosario downtown until the national flag memorial when it finished the journey. the ferrobús run four times a day, being soon demanded by a high number of users. despite of the advantages of this service and the satisfactory results, the ferrobús was cancelled by the end of that year and has never returned since.
