Forlì railway station (Vorlage:Lang-it) serves the city and comune of Forlì, in the region of Emilia-Romagna, northern Italy. Opened in 1926, it forms part of the Bologna–Ancona railway.
The station is currently managed by Rete Ferroviaria Italiana (RFI). However, the commercial area of the passenger building is managed by Centostazioni. Train services are operated by Trenitalia. Each of these companies is a subsidiary of Ferrovie dello Stato (FS), Italy's state-owned rail company.
Location
[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]Forlì railway station is situated at Piazzale Martiri d'Ungheria, to the east of the city centre.
History
[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]Forlì's original station was opened on 1 September 1861, together with the rest of the Bologna–Forlì section of the Bologna–Ancona railway.[1]
Just over one month later, on 5 October 1861, the new line was extended, from the original Forlì station to Rimini.[1]
In 1926, the original station was closed and replaced by the present station.
A project of the engineer Enzo Bianchi, the present station is about 100 metres (or yards) to the east of the original station. Vorlage:Clear
