The Putagán—Colbún railway, locally known as the Tren Chico (Small Train), was a 33 kilometres (21 mi) long 600 mm (1 ft 11+58 in) narrow gauge railway that operated between the communities of Yerba Buenas and Colbún in the province of Linares in Chile. It was in existence between 1914 and 1956. Parts of the former trackbed were converted to roads, the L215 and L11.
