🇮🇹 Messina Centrale

Über Messina Centrale

Messina Centrale is der wichtigste Bahnhof of Messina, the Sicilian city that faces mainland Calabria across the narrow Strait of Messina, and for Bahnreisenlers crossing to or from Sizilien it serves as the point of Ankunft and Abfahrt for the train Fährdienst that carries carriages across the strait. Long-distance Intercity-Dienste from Rome, Neapel, and Reggio Calabria terminate here, with the extraordinary practice of splitting and loading entire train carriages onto the ferry Caronte having been a defining feature of Italian Bahnreisen for many decades, though the system has seen changes and reductions over the years. The station is the hub for onward travel to Palermo, Catania, and Syracuse on the Sicilian Netz, and serves the vibrant city known for its Baroque churches and the Museo Regionale.
