 | | The Companhia Central Brasileira de Força Elétrica, a subsidiary of the U.S. corporation Electric Bond and Share, acquired the Vila Velha tramway along with the Vitória tramway in 1927, and for almost 40 years the neighboring systems were operated by the same company without a rail connection. |
 | | CCBFE sold the tramway to the Prefeitura Municipal de Vila Velha on 29 December 1965 and the last trolley in Espírito Santo state ran on 15 December 1967. |
 | | The population of Cachoeiro de Itapemirim was only 3,000 in 1900, but because it is near a large hydroelectric plant the town was the first in the state to have electricity, in 1903, six years before Vitória. |
