The original Santiago–Valparaíso railway line opened in 1863 via Batuco, and closed to passengers in 1987. In May 2019 Chile's president, Sebastián Piñera announces plans for a commuter rail line running north from Quilicura, on an extension of Santiago Metro Line 3, to Batuco and eventually Tiltil. The Ministry of Transport states that a basic engineering study was completed for the scheme in December 2017. The ministry also stated it was due to respond in July 2019 to an environmental evaluation that commenced at the end of the 2017. [3]
