Torre del Greco railway station is a railway station in Torre del Greco, Metropolitan City of Naples, Italy. It is served by the Naples-Sorrento and Naples-Poggiomarino lines of Circumvesuviana railway network, managed by EAV.[1]

History

Inaugurated in 1904 along with the line to Poggiomarino. In 1948, following the double-tracking works on the line to Naples, the new station building was brought into service.[2]

Station layout

The station features a two-level passenger building: the upper level, located at street level, houses the ticket office and the corridor connecting to the second and third tracks, while the lower level is situated at track level.

The station has three through tracks, served by two platforms equipped with canopies. The platform between the second and third tracks is directly connected to the station exit via an overpass.

As with all other Circumvesuviana stations, the station does not include a freight terminal.[3]

Passenger movement

The station is served by all trains heading to Naples, Poggiomarino, and Sorrento, as well as a few short-turn services terminating at Torre Annunziata Oplonti. It experiences high passenger traffic throughout the day and is one of the busiest stations on the entire line.
