Train Stations in Europe
Europe is home to some of the world’s most beautiful train stations, housed inside UNESCO-listed buildings and beneath modern glass rooftops. Most stations in Europe have staffed ticket offices and ticket machines which usually offer English-language instructions. It is best to purchase tickets online as far in advance as possible to have a greater choice of prices and travel times. European railways stations, particularly those in major cities, are often centrally located and are well served by public transport such as buses, trams, subway lines and taxi ranks situated nearby. Tourist offices and car rental companies tend to be in close proximity if not located within the station itself. Facilities vary, but larger stations can include restaurants, postal offices, tourist information offices, currency exchange services, ATMs, stores and luggage storage.
