add /evidencePassport — Added claim-level evidence mapping and source dossiers.add /revisionHistory — Established a permanent, hash-addressed baseline revision.The text below is copied verbatim from the published record. Each claim names the source dossiers that carry it; caveats stay attached to the claim they qualify.

quantitative
Line D reached a 3-minute peak headway after resignalling, but the promised 2 minutes 15 seconds could not be verified in practice for lack of rolling stock, and one of three planned stages was completed, five months late
This layer records what is known about each source, what is still missing, and the exact snapshot this page is rendering. A missing date, archive or hash stays visible as missing.
Awaiting operator and domain-expert review; publication of this revision implies neither.

src-11e5f5063586b54dThe load-bearing automation sentence: SBASE selected Siemens Mobility for CBTC on Line D, "with the CBTC supporting attended ATO to Grade of Automation 2". Also dates Trainguard MT on Line H to mid-2016 and its commissioning on Line C to February, and says it replaces an Alstom ATP in use since 2008, coordinated by a newly established operations control centre.
src-09db5a752fa1950fSupplier confirmation of the contract award date. Fetched and read: it states no contract value and no automation grade, and does not mention lines H or C — so it corroborates the award only, not the GoA2 claim.
src-d6b1975dd46f9423Trade press describing what GoA2 means in the cab: the driver presses a button and the train accelerates automatically to the next stop, and "can take control of the formation's operation at any moment". Dates the Line C reopening to 3 February 2020, replacing signalling in service since 1934, and states the 2:15 headway target depends on buying more trains — the line then had 13.
src-3ee120497a6cb72bThree months after the Line D cutover: Siemens was still updating software for line-specific behaviour, causing speed restrictions at platforms and station approaches; the Alstom 100 units — about a third of the fleet — could not run until calibration finished; journey times up 25%. "La línea funciona con menos trenes que antes."
src-1d37db47cf878087Carries the impact figures from an Auditoría General de la Ciudad report: the signalling project "contemplaba tres etapas, pero solo una se completó (con cinco meses de atraso)"; the completed phase enabled a 3-minute frequency while the promised 2:15 cannot be verified because "falta material rodante suficiente"; works advanced "sin un plan de trabajo aprobado para su etapa final". FETCH FAILURE, flagged: the AGCBA report PDF itself returned unreadable binary to automated fetching, so these audit findings are verified at press level, not against the primary document. The 48.11% cost increase and nine-month extension in the same audit belong to the Palermo and Scalabrini Ortiz station works, not to the signalling, and are deliberately excluded here.
src-2b0548d490e8414fSecond outlet independently confirming that the Auditoría General de la Ciudad report on the Line D works exists and its supervision findings — SBASE assigned a single works director without a full technical team or inspection plan.
src-29ed425464af202aOperator/authority description of the Puesto Central de Operaciones: two centres, one for lines A–E and one for line H, 26 staff, running "las 24 horas, los 365 días del año", monitoring train positions and signalling plus power, ventilation and pumping systems. No performance data is published from it — the entry claims none.
src-bbddec0b269cde5bStatic GTFS for the Subte, publisher Subterráneos de Buenos Aires (SBASE), licence CC-BY-2.5-AR. Checked 26 July 2026: the page carried the notice "Se informa a los usuarios de BA DATA que todos los datasets con Formato API y GTFS, están suspendidos. Se encuentran en revisión y corrección", with no date given.
src-45839c2963435014The real-time layer: for subte it provides static GTFS, forecastGTFS (trips currently running) and service alerts, licence CC-BY-2.5-AR, published by the Secretaría de Transporte y Obras Públicas; the portal states the API is used by Google and Moovit and is open to any developer on registration. Carries the same suspension notice as the GTFS dataset.
src-c65e29c5ca253f7fThe instrument transferring the network to the City of Buenos Aires and naming SBASE as the authority responsible for infrastructure, maintenance, development and the operating control systems, with the service run under concession. This is what clears the city-scope test for the entry.
src-420fdd2795dfe516Concession facts: Emova Movilidad, of the Benito Roggio Transporte group, took over operation and maintenance on 1 December 2021 under a 12-year contract running to 2033, succeeding Metrovías, which had held it since 1995.
src-f4f7798b7d29be36Independent NGO report, drawing on the Centro de Estudios Metropolitanos and official statistics: 199,116,074 passengers in 2024, and March 2025 at "apenas el 54% de los pasajeros de marzo de 2019". Two different 2019 annual totals circulate (about 325 and about 341 million) and neither is used here. FETCH FAILURE, flagged: the official Instituto de Estadística y Censos series at estadisticaciudad.gob.ar looped on a host redirect and could not be read to settle the 2019 figure.
src-79ba5d51049b8c54Establishes the limit of the rollout: CBTC operates on lines C, D and H only, no installation has been announced for Line B, and the new Line B trains must suit the existing ATP while being "prepared for a possible conversion to CBTC with ATO in GoA2" — the city itself specifies GoA2 as the ceiling.
