Treviso Centrale railway station


Treviso Centrale railway station serves the city and comune of Treviso, in the Veneto region, northeastern Italy. Opened in 1851, the station forms part of the Venice–Udine railway, and is also a junction of three branch lines, to Montebelluna, Vicenza and Portogruaro, respectively.
Although Treviso Centrale is currently the only railway station in Treviso, it is so named to distinguish it from the two other railway facilities within the comune boundaries: Treviso Porta Santi Quaranta and the marshalling yard at Treviso Scalo Motta.
Treviso Centrale is currently owned by Rete Ferroviaria Italiana. The commercial area of the passenger building is managed by Centostazioni. Train services to and from the station are operated by Trenitalia. Each of these companies is a subsidiary of Ferrovie dello Stato, Italy's state-owned rail company.

Features

Services inside the station include ticketing, a waiting area, shops, offices, and the headquarters of the Railway Police.
Eight tracks run through the station. As they are all equipped with platforms, they can all be used for passenger service.
The platforms are connected by two subways. One of them connects the historic district of San Zeno, the platforms and the passenger building, and ends on the other side of the ring road opposite the passenger building. The other subway, to the west of the first one, connects the platforms with the parking station.
Treviso Centrale is also equipped with a locomotive shed and some stabling facilities for passenger rolling stock that is not in use.
There are two goods yards. One is located just beyond the station towards Udine, without crossing loops but with various sidings and a small office building. The second yard re-uses the freight yard and the warehouse of the former Treviso Porta Santi Quaranta railway station. Although the goods service is rather modest compared to the past, it is still in operation.
Rail traffic at the station is handled with an ACEI type control console with tabulation of train paths and routes.
