On 1 January 1947,[2] the club was founded as Trem Desportivo Clube by Bellarmino Paraense de Barros, Benedito Malcher, the brothers Osmar and Arthur Marinho, and Walter and José Banhos, among others, in one of the most important and traditional[3] neighborhoods of Macapá.[4]

The club was eliminated in the first stage, by Remo (first leg, at Zerão stadium, Macapá, Remo won 5–0, the second leg, at Mangueirão, Belém, Remo won again, 2–0).[5] In 1999, due to financial difficulties, the club closed its football section.
