Answer: It literally means "Maiden's Tower" in Turkish. The name comes from a legend: the Byzantine emperor heard a prophecy telling him that his beloved daughter would die at the age of 18 by a snake. So he decided to put her in this tower built on a rock on the Bosphorus isolated from the land thus no snake could kill her.

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

O transporte ferroviário no Brasil começou no século 19 e havia muitas empresas ferroviárias diferentes. As ferrovias foram nacionalizadas pela RFFSA (Rede Ferroviária Federal, Sociedade Anônima) em 1957. Entre 1999 e 2007, a RFFSA foi desmembrada e os serviços agora são operados por uma variedade de operadores públicos e privados, incluindo América Latina Logística, Companhia Paulista de Trens Metropolitanos e SuperVia. Espero que isto ajude!
