Historyedit
The oldest station to be constructed at the location was opened on 3 November 1844 as station Vlaams Hoofd. After the annexation of the village of Vlaams-Hoofd by Antwerp in the name changed to station Antwerpen-West. There was also a ferry connection available to Antwerpen-Waas station [Wikidata] on the right bank side of the river Scheldt. After the opening of the St.-Annatunnel in 1933, the station was renovated in 1935 and renamed station Antwerpen-Linkeroever. This station at the Beatrijslaan was ultimately closed on 1 February 1970, being replaced by a new station located more to the West at the Katwilgweg. This second station was finally taken out of service on 3 June 1984 due to low usage. Of the newer station, some remnants still remain in the form of two low-lying and derelict platforms located near the present building of the Gazet van Antwerpen. [1][2]
