The Luz Station in 1936. There is a 1988 photo of this station in the FEPASA page. The train to Santos is about to depart. The steam locomotive would run the first 53 km of railroad to the Paranapiacaba station, at the top of the Serra do Mar, where the cars would be transported by the funicular system down to the Raiz da Serra station. There is a 800 m altitude difference between Paranapiacaba and Raiz da Serra stations. Photo originally available at the site of the revista Ferrovia.
