The Vilar de Rei halt was an interface of the Sabor line, which served the town of Vilar de Rei, in the municipality of Mogadouro, in Portugal.
History
[edit]This stop was part of the section of the Sabor Line between Lagoaça and Mogadouro, which opened for operation on 1 June 1930.[1] In August 1932, the Companhia Nacional de Caminhos de Ferro began building housing for porters and a covered quay for goods at this interface, which had the category of station at the time, these works were almost finished by the beginning of the following year.[2]
The Sabor line was closed on 1 August 1988, and so did the Vilar de Rei halt.[3]
