[2] This line crosses many important neighbourhoods of the North Side, such as Praça da Bandeira, São Cristóvão, Maracanã, Méier, Engenho de Dentro, Piedade, Cascadura, Madureira, Oswaldo Cruz, Rio de Janeiro, Bento Ribeiro and Marechal Hermes.

Some of its main stations, such as Méier and Madureira, had escalators installed and others, such as Cascadura, Piedade and Quintino, were restored.

From Central do Brasil towards Deodoro, there are bus lines with integration to Catumbi and Rio Comprido neighbourhoods.

This decision was taken by SuperVia to reduce delays caused by the signalling of the Deodoro, Santa Cruz and Japeri lines.
