Puerto Montt, Chile's major southern city (176,000 h), founded in the late nineteenth century to promote German immigration, has - in the words of Chilean them - two economic milestones in its history. One in the 90s of the twentieth century with the expansion of salmon farming, now seriously challenged by their predatory effects and low multiplier effect on the economy and another in 1913 with the arrival of the railroad. Today, major port, does not have a proper spring as do the ports of Patagonia Argentina and see what was the railroad.
