The Milano Centrale station is the main railway station of the Lombard capital, the second of Italy for passenger flow after Rome Termini and before Turin Porta Nuova, as well as one of the main railway stations in Europe. The station is also connected to Milan-Malpensa Airport through the Malpensa Express airport train.
It was inaugurated in 1931 to replace the old central station that stood in the current Piazza della Repubblica, which became insufficient due to the increase in rail traffic. The management of the plants is entrusted to Rete Ferroviaria Italiana (RFI), a company belonging to the Ferrovie dello Stato group, which classifies the station in the “Platinum” category, while that of the commercial areas of the monumental passenger building belongs to Grandi Stazioni. In November 2010 the airport was named after Saint Francesca Cabrini (1850-1917), founder of the congregation of the Missionaries of the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
Its coordinates are 45 ° 29′10 ″ N 9 ° 12′13 ″ E with 24 platforms and it serves 120 million passengers per year.
Each platform is usually dedicated to some particular route. The current organization is as follows, although temporary changes may occur.
Platforms 1-3: Chiasso/Domodossola/Milan-Turin (ES* AV)
Platforms 4-6: Turin/Cisalpino Milan–Como–Arth Goldau–Basel / Zürich
Platforms 7-13: Venice / Udine
