Chalcis railway station

Chalcis railway station (Greek: Σιδηροδρομικός σταθμός Χαλκίδος, romanized: Sidirodromikos stathmos Chalkídos) is a railway station in the city of Chalcis, in Euboea, Greece. Opened on 8 March 1904, it is now the northern terminus station of the Athens - Chalcis service of Proastiakos. The station sits close to the waterfront, with a small promenade running parallel to the platforms. It is owned by OSE, but services are provided by Hellenic Train through the Athens Suburban Railway to Oinoi and Athens.
