Railways

The railway network in the State of São Paulo is operated by the following concessionaires: Ferrovia Centro-Atlântica (FCA), MRS Logística, América Latina Logística Malha Paulista, Malha Sul and Malha Oeste (ALL). In addition to providing intraregional transport, these railway lines connect the productive areas in the States of São Paulo, Minas Gerais, Bahia, Sergipe, Goiás, Mato Grosso and Mato Grosso do Sul to the Tietê-Paraná waterway and to the ports of Santos, Rio de Janeiro, Itaguaí and Guaíba. The concessionaire ALL also links the Port of Santos to Paraguay and Bolivia and plans to provide an Atlantic-Pacific link in the near future.
