The Ramal de Matosinhos or Matosinhos branch railway, originally called the Ramal de Leixões, was a metre-gauge railway line which connected the stations of Senhora da Hora, on the Linha do Porto à Póvoa e Famalicão, to the Port of Leixões, in Portugal. It was built in 1884 to connect the port to the São Gens quarry. Later, it was adapted to passenger and freight transport.[1] Commercial service began on the 6 May 1893.[2] The line was closed on 1 July 1965.[3] In the 2000s, part of the trackbed was used for the construction of Porto Metro Line A.[4]
