Ferrocarriles Argentinos Sociedad del Estado (abbreviated as FASE) is a state-owned railway company of Argentina created for the operation and maintenance of the Argentine railway network in the country, including passenger and freight services, and infrastructure.

The company shares its name with the previous national operator which was broken up during the privatisation process begun in 1989, and also uses a modified version of its original logo. FASE is divided into three divisions: Trenes Argentinos Operaciones (passenger services), Trenes Argentinos Cargas (freight), and Trenes Argentinos Infraestructura (infrastructure).

In March 2021, the Minister of Transport announced that Ferrocarriles Argentinos S.E. would be made operative again, after an almost five-year hiatus during the presidency of Mauricio Macri.

As of May 2022, Trenes Argentinos had 30,102 employees, making it the Argentine company with the most employees.
