Campinas is the home of a preserved railway line. The line operates between Campinas (near the Carrefour shipping center) and Jaguariúna, a city about 10 km north of Campinas.
I have divided my photos here into the 2001 visit and the 2003 visit.
The official web site of this operation used to be at http://www.eina.com.br/mariafumaca/
but today it is located at the web site below.
As it has been quite a long time since I visited this wonderful little railroad, and even in 2003 things had changed quite a bit since my visit in 2001. Therefore, I am not going to trust that any information I have is still valid.
One can take the train to a number of different stations along the line, so that the ticket price covers a fairly broad range.
