Entroncamento
The city of Entroncamento is located 22 minutes away from Tomar, in Tagus Valley, and it was born in the industrial age when camps were pitched for workers at a junction in the network (“entroncamento” means junction in Portuguese). It soon became a nexus point for freight and passenger trains heading north and east. The most famous figures of the period would join for a meal at the station’s restaurant before transferring.
