Iași railway station
Iași railway station is the main railway station in Iași, and one of the oldest in Romania. It is part of the Pan-European Corridor IX. History Opened in 1870, the Grand Railway Station first connected Iași to Chernivtsi in Bukovina, Austria-Hungary and, after two years, to Bucharest. The original building designed by Julian Oktawian Zachariewicz-Lwigród[1] and inspired by the Doge's Palace of the Republic of Venice, is 133.8 metres (439 ft) long, has 113 rooms and is listed in the National Register of Historic Monuments.[2] In 1928-1930, two additional wings were symmetrically added to each side of the building. In 1980, a new separate building was constructed on the north side of the complex station and named Iași Nord. The main buildings of the station have recently been restored with modern additions.[3]- Current operations Passenger servicesAs of 2013, Iași railway station serves about 110 trains in a typical day, including domestic trains to and from a majority of Romanian cities. Additionally, international trains run to Chișinău and Ungheni, in the Republic of Moldova. The main lines in Iași are Făurei – Tecuci – Iași and Iași – Pașcani. Local transitThe station is served by several tram and bus lines operated by CTP Iași, the local transit operator. Bus route 50 provides non-stop service to the Iași International Airport, with departures every 30 minutes.[4][5] Distance from other railway stationsRomania
