The Empresa de los Ferrocarriles del Estado was created on January 4, 1884, by President Domingo Santa María in Santiago, Chile. It was established as a state-owned public service company with the purpose of developing, promoting, and operating passenger and cargo railway transportation services. The company brought together various existing private railway services, including the Santiago-Valparaíso Railway, the Santiago-Curicó Railway, and the Curicó-Angol Railway. The creation of this company played a crucial role in expanding the railway as the main means of transportation and communication in Chile during the 20th century, allowing for the integration of previously disconnected territories. The company's focus is on providing railway transportation services, and it has plans to expand its network further south in the country.
