History

The original station opened on 27 May 1888, on the Annemasse-Genève-Eaux-Vives line between Genève-Eaux-Vives and Annemasse.[3] The station closed in 1987 in favor of the newly opened station at Ambilly; this was done so that customs control could be centralized at Genève-Eaux-Vives. The station building was preserved, and re-opened from 2011–2013 to handle TER services after construction on the new CEVA orbital railway line led to the closure of Genève-Eaux-Vives.[4]

As part of the CEVA project, a new underground station was built at Chêne-Bourg; the original station building was moved about 40 metres (130 ft) but remains standing. The new station opened on 15 December 2019.

gollark: I suspect it's whatever you're doing to bptr after each broadcast. That looks dubious and the log says it's a "loadprohibited" error, which sounds like something memory.
gollark: I don't think this affects *me* very badly, since my configured disk encryption all runs in software without any weird TPM interaction, I don't use "secure" boot, and it seems like this would need physical access or unrealistically good timing, but it's still not very good.
gollark: I wonder if AMD's PSP has similar holes. In any case, they should really just not be sticking subprocessors with closed-source non-user-modifiable firmware and root access into every CPU.
gollark: I don't think there's a reason they couldn't other than bad performance. Which might require you to turn down quality, increase bitrate, decrease resolution/framerate or whatever else.
gollark: I think the LattePanda ones are just x86.
