Transandine Road Block Halts Argentina United States Link
Heavy snowstorms likely stopped all communication between Argentina and the United States via the Trans Andine Railway and the west coast. Snow slides wrecked bridges and tore up sections, making the Buenos Aires to Valparaiso drain inoperable. Several prominent North American businessmen were stranded in the Andes and forced to reroute via the east coast. Railway officials say repairs will not be feasible before September or October.
