Logistics Integration and Passenger Transportation

But our tracks don¡¯t just carry cargo; they connect people. In Brazil, we proudly operate two regular passenger train lines, offering a safe, comfortable, and affordable transportation alternative:

  • Vit¨®ria-Minas Railway (EFVM): Connecting Esp¨ªrito Santo to Minas Gerais. 
  • Caraj¨¢s Railway (EFC): Connecting ±Ê²¹°ù¨¢ to Maranh?o. 

In total, this network spans approximately 2,000 kilometers of railway lines across Brazil.
