history
The railway club was founded in 1924 as Clube Ferroviário de Lourenço Marques and was given its current name in 1976 after Mozambique gained independence .
In the city championship held by Lourenço Marques from 1922 to 1961 , Ferroviário won the title 14 times between 1931 and 1958, making it the most successful team in the city.
When in 1956 a national championship was held for the first time in what was then the Portuguese colony, Ferroviário won the first title. Seven more championships followed until Mozambique gained independence in 1975. After independence, it took until 1982 for the first title in the new state. Since 2009, Ferroviário has been the record champion of modern Mozambique with nine titles together with Costa do Sol .
Internationally, the club first made a name for itself in 1992, when the capital city made it to the semi-finals of the CAF Cup and only lost to Ugandan representatives Nakirubo Villa SC Kampale on penalties in the semi -finals. In 1997 Ferroviário became the first Mozambican club to qualify for the group stage of the African Champions League . Despite two wins and a draw in six games, they finished last in the group.
