This paper aims to comprehend the way how the organization of rail work in Bahia was designed during the firsts years after emancipation of slavery, in 1888. The creation of a extensive disciplinary code in 1893 shows the orientation of a “new ethic of work” which intended to organize and impose new values and behaviors for its workers. Thus, this article wants analize the political contents of the proposal of work organization and the process of rail work itself, paying special attention to the elements which this code used to regulate it. Also we want to understand how it controled the workers which were engaged on the São Francisco Railroad in Bahia.
