Very nice photos, thanks for posting. Do any of these still function as passenger depots?

Hi Latebeams,

No, none of these I posted above function for passenger trains. But I will add pics of the operational stations soon.

1 - Belo Horizonte (BH) central station. It is the served by the metropolitan system, the Vale long distance passenger train and all freight train that cross B. It is served by dual gauge and nice to watch Vale, VLi and MRS trains in action;

2 - Araçai (Arassai) on fca north corridor to Bahia state;

3 - Silva Xavier, in the same fca corridor mentioned above.

Arrojado Lisboa, on MRS (broad gauge) Paraopeba line. It is former EFCB (Central of Brazil rwy). The location is great to watch MRS ore trains. Pics from 2008.
