Abstract: Railway yards are composed of a series of buildings, such as warehouses, workshops, depots, coal yards, inspection rooms, sand kilns, weighbridges, administrative spaces, ash unloading areas, factories, blacksmith shops, carpentry shops, silos, cranes, water tanks, and locomotive turntables, in addition to passenger boarding stations. This work seeks to understand the transformations in the spatiality of railway yards, based on documentation from primary and secondary sources, which allow for mapping the constructive temporalities of these places and, based on their continuities, discussing the challenges involved in their protection. In this case, the research focuses on the Railway Yard of the city of Bagé, belonging to the Rio Grande - Bagé Railway, located in southern Rio Grande do Sul and built parallel to the border with Uruguay.
