The Bauru Station (NOB) is the starting point of the Estrada de Ferro Noroeste do Brasil (NOB) ("Brazil's Northwest Railroad"). Opened in 1906, it consisted of a simple wooden building attached to the Bauru Station of the Sorocabana Railroad. With the growth of traffic, the wooden building was temporarily extended until the construction of a definitive station opened in 1939. The last long-distance passenger trains left the station in 2001. In 2006, the administration was transferred to the Bauru City Hall, which has been managing it since then.[1][2]
