History edit

 
Nicasio Vila.

The station was opened in April 1891 in the Eloy Palacios town by British-owned Central Argentine Railway, as part of the line from Ludueña (Rosario) to Peyrano (at the border with Buenos Aires Province). The town had been founded by Nicasio Vila, an entrepreneur owner of "Compañía de Tramways del Oeste", a horse tramway company.[1] The tramway company built the line from Rosario with Eloy Palacios.[2]

In 1906, the municipality of Rosario changed the town's name to "Barrio Vila", the same than the railway station built by the Central Argentine.[2]

After the railway nationalization in 1949, the station was managed by the General Bartolomé Mitre Railway division of Ferrocarriles Argentinos.[2]

In 1977 Barrio Vila station was closed, as almost all passenger services were eliminated.[3] Like other stations of the former Mitre Railway, it is maintained nowadays by freight company Nuevo Central Argentino.
