After the Proclamation of the Republic, in 1889, the intention of transferring the capital of Minas Gerais of Ouro Preto for another area of the state won force. One of the arguments that would justify that measured it was the fact of the urban space of the city non to correspond with the model of the new times, not having means of improving it.

Another strategy went to accomplishment of improvements in the urban mesh, tends in view the rail extension. The appearance of new daily experiences provided by the railway will also be observed, such as the easiness of peoples circulation, information, goods and even diseases
