Construction finally started in 1910 and was finished in 1913, operations started the following year.
On October 9, 1953 a serious accident occurred near Yerba Buena when a rural bus crashed into a train, leaving 22 people dead and many injured in one of Chile's worst train disasters ever.〔(Recuerdo de una tragedia (Spanish) ) Retrieved march 4, 2012〕
