Airolo railway station

Airolo railway station (Italian: Stazione di Airolo) is a railway station in the Swiss canton of Ticino and municipality of Airolo. The station is on the original line of the Swiss Federal Railways Gotthard railway, at the southern entrance to the Gotthard Tunnel. Most trains on the Gotthard route now use the Gotthard Base Tunnel and do not pass through Airolo station.[1][5]

Location

The station has three platform tracks, served by a side platform and an island platform, connected by a pedestrian subway. The station building, on the side platform, includes a kiosk and a ticket office, but is largely given over to a manufacturer of local yogurts. Just outside the station entrance is a memorial to the lives lost during the construction of the Gotthard Tunnel.
