Routes for Brazil
Caldas - Grama
Author(s): João Carlos Gonçalves. Muito obrigado / Thanks :-)
26.3 km
Caldas to Grama is a fictional BVE route based on João childhood memories. It's a sequence from his previous Caldas to Boa Vista route. Featuring Brazilian countryside sceneries and rolling stock used in the 70's. All sceneries were portrayed from the States of Minas Gerais and Sao Paulo, which were served by Companhia Mogiana de Estradas de Ferro (Mogiana Railway Company), which was one of the most important railway companies in the State of Sao Paulo. It served the richest coffee producers of the northeast region. The Mogiana Railway Company was absorbed by FEPASA in 1971 and FERROBAN in 1998. Nowadays all tracks were adapted and updated for heavy train cargo freights. Since then, all passenger services were cut down, as well as the electric traction, built just after the end of World War II. In a few words, all the catenary system (overhead wires, masts, substations) had been completely removed, all electric locos were dismantled, disassembled or even abandoned at several cemetery depots of useless materials around the State.

Pinda to Expedicionária is based on the real line, that connects the towns of Pindamonhangaba (or simply Pinda) and Campos do Jordão, in the eastern part of the State of São Paulo, Brazil.
Pinda is one of the most important medium towns in the Parahyba Valley region, on which several heavy basic industries and factories are settled there.
Campos do Jordão is known by its altitude (1.700m above sea level), by its chilly and dry climate in the winter season, as well as hills, mountains and valleys, so this way the town is also known as the 'Brazilian Switzerland', being highly demanded by wealth people on their vacations, holidays, special events, etc. Most of them are owners of beautiful and posh cottages around the town, featuring the german architecture.
The single track meter gauge railway is electrified, being powered by a 1.5 Kv catenary system supplied by one power substation located in the Eugénio Lefévre Station. The line has a total length of 46 Km, being kept by EFCJ (Estrada de Ferro Campos do Jordão) since its foundation in 1914. There's also some local services available, that run in both Pinda and Campos urban areas only, from Mondays to Fridays.
The first part is portrayed here (13 Km), that goes from Pinda to Expedicionária.
All the buildings, curves, rolling stock, catenaries, typical Brazilian vegetation and distances between stations are accurated.
