Ridership of the Metro-CPTM systems is around 5,5 million people/day, due to increase to 7,5 million by 2011, especially with the all-new Line 4. It is heavily congested in the central sections, especially lines 1 and 3.

Update on new Line 2 Tamanduateí Station by Eduardo GJF:

Eduardo GJF · February 22nd, 2010, 03:03 AM

I'm glad to know my pics are useful here

We're all looking foward to the Line 2 Extension (mostly because of the connection with Line 10) and the brand new Line 4 - which will connect Lines 1, 2, 3, 7, 10 and 11 with the "almost-isolated" Lines 9 and 5. Both will be inaugurated in 2010.

Here we have a powerfull expansion plan for 2014, and i think são paulo will be the great city in mobility urban services.

however, we'll have a great challenge.

these pictures were very good...

Some of Sao Paulos metro lines run on old railways from the 19th century thus some of the system is not counted as real metro, although trains operate like a metro in intervals of a few minutes, no transfer fee to "real" metro lines, it's the same system actually.

A picture of São Paulo's CPTM line 7 serving the north of the metropolitan area:

Another video of a more urban, central part of line 7. By Tiago Costa.

Line 7 is great to show lesser known parts of the system which are far from the center and of more difficult access.

Line 7 uses an old railroad built by a British consortium in 1864, thus it displays features of 19th century British architecture and engineering:

São Paulo's old central Luz station was built as part of this old railroad, now the station serves several Metro and CPTM lines, including line 7.

Jundiaí Station - Jundiaí is a city of 400,000 inhabitants north of Sao Paulo and is the only city outside the Sao Paulo metropolitan area to be served by the CPTM Metro system.
