Milano Centrale is the main railway station of the City of Milan, Italy and one of the main railway stations in Europe. The station is a terminus and located at the northern end of central Milan. It was officially inaugurated in 1931 to replace the old central station (built 1864), which was a transit station and could not handle the increased traffic caused by the opening of the Simplon tunnel in 1906.
