Are there two Samborombón?

About 10 km. southwest of Brandsen, near an old road that connected to Brandsen with Ranchos, is another place called Samborombón, which is often confused with the town. At that other Samborombón there is an abandoned train station of the former Rail Buenos Aires Province, a school, No. 16 of District Brandsen, and a few houses.
