The economic, political, social and technological development of the territories reflected in the world today are narrated through stories that represent their territorial cultural identity, therefore, capturing these events as a starting point for the reconstruction of a Memory is essential, especially if they are told by their protagonists. Reason for which this qualitative biographical research arises. For the study, semi-structured interviews were carried out with three railway pensioners, also, a theoretical triangulation was applied under the concepts of historical memory, cultural heritage and oral stories, and finally, an opinion poll was carried out to understand the importance of the railway and its reconstruction from the individual narratives of the railwaymen. The compilation of the oral accounts of the three railway pensioners will obtain the recognition of the narratives as fundamental vehicles for the reconstruction of the memory of Girardot, just as, such a historical journey made possible the analysis of the close relationship of its inhabitants with this, what that achieved an approach to the realities and practices of individuals in the historical journey for the reconstruction of the memory of a city.
