Madignano railway station is a railway station serving the town and comune of Madignano in the region of Lombardy, Northern Italy. The single-platform halt is located on the Treviglio–Cremona railway.
History
When the Treviglio–Cremona line was being constructed in the early 1860s, among the approximately 50 municipalities whose territories would have been affected by the infrastructure, only four assumed a hostile attitude to the development. Among these was Madignano, which had just suffered heavy burdens from the construction of an oratory (already abandoned by 1856) and a new road to neighboring Castelleone.[2] The railway nevertheless reached the comune in 1862 without any station being built.[3]
A railway halt was proposed by the municipal administration in 1993, with feasibility studies beginning that year.[4]
