São Francisco Xavier station

São Francisco Xavier is a railway station in São Francisco Xavier, Rio de Janeiro which is serviced by the Supervia.

For many years, this station was the terminus for the Linha Auxiliar (Auxiliary Line), which is now known as the Belford Roxo Line, before Alfredo Maia station (since demolished)[1] opened in 1905.

The Linha do Norte, which is now the Saracuruna and Vila Inhomirim lines, but which at the time continued to Petrópolis, also had its terminus at São Francisco Xavier before 1909.

A train crash in 1935 would lead to rioters targeting the station.
