Corinth railway station

The new station lies on the Athens Airport–Patras railway, and was opened as the line's western terminus on 27 September 2005.[4] It remained so until 9 July 2007, when the line was extended to Kiato. The new station should not be confused with the old Corinth station on the Piraeus-Patras line of the former SPAP, which is located north of the current station (inside the city of Corinth) which closed in 2007. The station is served by Line 2 of Proastiakos Athens between Piraeus and Kiato, and Line 5 between Aigio and central Athens/Athens Airport.[5] The two stations are still connected by a metric line, which is a small branch of the Corinth-Kalamata railway line and which operated to promote passengers between the Peloponnese and Attica between 2005 and 2007, how it is now disused. In 2009, with the Greek debt crisis unfolding OSE's Management was forced to reduce services across the network.[6] Timetables were cutback and routes closed, as the government-run entity attempted to reduce overheads. In 2017 OSE's passenger transport sector was privatised as TrainOSE, currently, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ferrovie dello Stato Italiane[7] infrastructure, including stations, remained under the control of OSE.

The raised station is assessed via stairs or a ramp. It has three island platform 1 side platform (however but only two platforms presently in use), with station buildings located on platform 1, with access to the platform level via stairs or lift from a subway. In the subway to the platforms, copies of ancient artifacts excavated during the station's construction are on display. The Station buildings are equipped with a booking office toilets & A cafe is located at the entrance to the station. At platform level, there are sheltered seating an air-conditioned indoor passenger shelter and Dot-matrix display departure and arrival screens and timetable poster boards on both platforms. There is a large car park on-site, adjacent to the eastbound line. Currently, there is a local bus stop connecting the station, a large, free car park, and a taxi rank all located at the station forecourt.

The station is served the following lines of the Athens Proastiakos[8] or suburban railway:

The reopening of the metric line from Loutraki to Nafplio sections is currently being examined, especially for the tourist needs of the area. The new Italian management of TRAINOSE has expressed its interest in the operation of the department.
