Corinth railway station (Template:Lang-el) is a train station in Corinth, Greece. The new station is located on the outskirts of the city, near Examilia. The old station, near the harbour, is disused.
The new station lies on the Athens Airport–Patras railway, and was opened as the line's western terminus on 27 September 2005.[1] It remained so until 9 July 2007, when the line was extended to Kiato. The station is served by Line 2 of Proastiakos Athens between Piraeus and Kiato, and Line 5 between Aigio and central Athens/Athens Airport.[2]
The station has five platforms, but only two are presently in use. In the subway to the platforms, copies of ancient artifacts excavated during the station's construction are on display. A cafe is located at the entrance to the station. There is a large, free car park, a bus stop and a taxi rank.
