Brás is a station on the

CPTM
.

History

The first station at this location was opened on February 16, 1867, under the name 'Braz' by the

Franklin Roosevelt
, who died that year.

During the 1950s the government took control of the lines operated by the

SPR, and creating the National Rail Company RFFSA (liquidated in 2007). During the 1980s, with the construction of the East-West Line (Red line 3 on the São Paulo Metro) the train station was integrated with the newly inaugurated metro station, forming the integrated Brás station. In 1994, the CPTM
assumed administration of the suburban rail service and remodeled the station. After the remodeling, the name 'Roosevelt' was officially dropped, and the station began being called Brás, as was called the original SPR station.
