Wikipedia - Club Ferrocarril Midland
Club Atlético Ferrocarril Midland is an Argentine football club based in the Libertad district of Merlo Partido, in the Greater Buenos Aires. The team currently plays in Primera Nacional, the second division of the Argentine football league system.
History
The club was founded on June 28, 1914 by workers of the Buenos Aires Midland Railway with the objective to participate in some sports and other social activities. In 1929 the club was divided into two divisions: "Club Midland" and "Club Atlético Libertad", but they were reunited in 1933. After the merger, it was decided that club's colours would be white and blue.
Midland competed in the regional divisions until 1960 when the club gained its affiliation to the Argentine Football Association. One year later Midland started competing in the lowest league, Primera D Metropolitana. Between 1988 and 1989 Midland set a South American record reaching a mark of 50 consecutive games being undefeated. As a consequence of that notable campaign, the team won the Primera D title promoting to Primera C Metropolitana.
The club had a short run in the Primera C during the 1990s and even came to play in the Primera B after winning the Torneo Reducido in 1996.
In 2008-09 the team won the Primera D championship (their 3rd. title), therefore it was promoted to play in the Primera C Metropolitana. In 2023 Midland defeated Liniers 5–2 on goal difference, promoting to Primera B Metro for the second time in club's history.
In November 2025 Midland promoted to the second division of Argentina, Primera Nacional, after being crowned champion of the 2025 Primera B Metropolitana entire season. As Midland won both, Apertura and Clausura tournaments, the club secured promotion to the upper division.
Midland competes in the lower divisions of Argentine football, primarily in the Primera C and Primera D leagues. The club's name, which translates to "Midland Railway," pays homage to its origins linked to the railway industry, a significant part of the region's development. This connection is emblematic of the club's working-class roots and its commitment to representing the local populace.
The team's home matches are played at the Estadio Ciudad de General Alvear, a venue that fosters a passionate atmosphere, with dedicated fans who support the team through thick and thin. Midland is known for its spirited playstyle and has a reputation for nurturing local talent, making it a vital part of the Argentine football landscape.
Throughout its history, Ferrocarril Midland has experienced various successes and challenges, but its resilience and dedication to the sport continue to inspire both players and supporters alike. The club embodies the spirit of Argentine football, characterized by passion, community, and a relentless pursuit of excellence on the pitch.
