However, the concession of the railroad to the Leopoldina Railway and the inauguration of the school of the teacher Leopoldina Rego had occurred in a short interval of only three years. Ademais, the lands of the Noca if concentrated in the Pottery region, not justifying, the principle, that the fame of it and its son if extended of Manguinhos the General Vicar, quarters coincidently served by the line of the train Finally, as we explain in the article ‘ ‘ Madureira, the Tricolor Suburbano’ ‘ , on the basis of Brazil Gerson, arrabaldes next to the railroad lines was known as ‘ ‘ suburbs of the Central’ ‘ , ‘ ‘ suburbs of the Leopoldina’ ‘ (before 1897, ‘ ‘ suburbs of the Northern’ ‘) etc.
