Northern Line reopened for long-distance trains between Braga and Lisbon

Rail services on the Northern Line for long-distance routes between Braga and Lisbon, and on the Minho Line, resumed today; all trains are expected to operate, CP reported at 06:00.

The Minho Line (Linha do Minho) is the railway in northern Portugal that runs from Porto toward Valença and the Spanish border, with regional services operated by Comboios de Portugal (CP). It is a key commuter and cross‑border route, so service suspensions between Caminha and Valença after a fallen tree will disrupt local travel and international connections until repairs and inspections are completed.
