The Bahia-Minas Railway was a Brazilian railway company that connected the Jequitinhonha Valley in northeastern Minas Gerais to the southern coast of Bahia. Inaugurated on January 25, 1881 and deactivated in 1966, it spanned 578 kilometers, linking the Minas Gerais municipality of Aracuai to the district of Ponta de Areia in Caravelas on the extreme southern coast of Bahia, where its tracks reached a port, and it played a crucial role in the regional economy.
