I think it's only currently going to consider the codigoEstacion='02'
as indexable which may not be selective enough to make it consider
the index. The 1 is being read as an int4 (see discussions in archives)
rather than a smallint and so you should probably cast it explicitly
(1::smallint). Also fechaHora is timestamp with time zone, but I
believe the right side of that is timestamp without time zone. You may
need to change that as well.
