On November 19, 2020, during the deliver of the fourth train CRRC Qingdao Sifang 2500 Series, Secretary of Transports Alexandre Baldy confirmed a new express service, which started operating on December 1, 2020.
The trains depart every hour from both terminus stations from 5 AM to midnight and there is no special fare for this service.
It was available since October 3, 2018 the special service Connect, which consisted of trains between Brás Station and Guarulhos Airport Station during peak hours (from 5:40am to 8:20am and from 5:20pm to 8:00pm), with no need to exchange trains at Engenheiro Goulart Station, offering direct access to São Paulo city center and also easier connections to other subway lines.
[6] The total route of the Connect service consisted of 5 stations and was 21.7 km (13.5 mi) long.
Original plans for Line 13 consisted of an underground route from Engenheiro Goulart to Chácara Klabin via the city centre,[10] however this is expected to be replaced by using existing overground tracks from Engenheiro Goulart to Luz Station.
