This list is based on the service valid as at 31 December 2013. CP no longer publish a national railway timetable, so the table numbers used (prefixed TCE) are those in the "European Rail Timetable" published by Thomas Cook.

This south to east curve provides a direct route between the Leiria and Coimbra directions, avoiding reversal in the Figueira da Foz area.
This south to west curve links the Linha do Oeste with the line to Figueira da Foz. This is its first scheduled use since all services north of Leiria were diverted to run to/from Coimbra B in September 2013. The southbound timing is shown from Figueira da Foz as Bifurcação de Lares is a "v" station.
The line from Caldas da Rainha to Amieira ( and beyond to the junctions with the Coimbra to Figueira da Foz line) will close at the end of January 2012, thereby closing this obscure route.

Standard abbreviations are explained in General Information.
